6
"This is what the Lord says -
Israel's King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;
apart from me there is no God.
7
Who then is like me? Let him proclaim it.
Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
and what is yet to come -
yes, let them foretell what will come.
8
Do not tremble, do not be afraid.
Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago?
You are my witnesses. Is there any God besides me?
No, there is no other Rock; I know not one."
