Israel has been saved by the Lord With an ^(aw)everlasting salvation; You ^(ax)will not be put to shame or humiliated To all eternity.

For thus says the Lord , who ^(ay)created the heavens (He is the God who ^(az)formed the earth and made it, He established it and did not create it ^[s]a ^(ba)waste place, but formed it to be ^(bb)inhabited), "I am the Lord , and ^(bc)there is none else.

"^(bd)I have not spoken in secret, In ^[t]some dark land; I did not say to the ^[u](be)offspring of Jacob, ‘^(bf)Seek Me in ^[v]a waste place'; I, the Lord , ^(bg)speak righteousness, ^(bh)Declaring things that are upright.

"^(bi)Gather yourselves and come; Draw near together, you fugitives of the nations; ^(bj)They have no knowledge, Who ^(bk)carry about ^[w]their wooden idol And ^(bl)pray to a god who cannot save.

"^(bm)Declare and set forth your case; Indeed, let them consult together. ^(bn)Who has announced this from of old? Who has long since declared it? Is it not I, the Lord ? And there is ^(bo)no other God besides Me, A righteous God and a ^(bp)Savior; There is none except Me.

"^(bq)Turn to Me and ^(br)be saved, all the ends of the earth; For I am God, and there is no other.

"^(bs)I have sworn by Myself, The ^(bt)word has gone forth from My mouth in righteousness And will not turn back, That to Me ^(bu)every knee will bow, every tongue will ^(bv)swear allegiance.

"They will say of Me, ‘Only ^(bw)in the Lord are righteousness and strength.' Men will come to Him, And ^(bx)all who were angry at Him will be put to shame.

"In the Lord all the offspring of Israel Will be ^(by)justified and will ^(bz)glory."
