Isaiah 44:7

Isaiah 44:7

5 One will say, ‘I am the Lord’s’;
Another will call himself by the name of Jacob;
Another will write with his hand, ‘The Lord’s,’
And name himself by the name of Israel.

There Is No Other God

6 “Thus says the Lord, the King of Israel,
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
^a‘I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God.

7 And ^awho can proclaim as I do?
Then let him declare it and set it in order for Me,
Since I appointed the ancient people.
And the things that are coming and shall come,
Let them show these to them.

8 Do not fear, nor be afraid;
^aHave I not told you from that time, and declared it?
^bYou are My witnesses.
Is there a God besides Me?
Indeed ^cthere is no other Rock;
I know not one.’ ”

Idolatry Is Foolishness

9 ^aThose who make an image, all of them are useless,
And their precious things shall not profit;
They are their own witnesses;
^bThey neither see nor know, that they may be ashamed.

10 Who would form a god or mold an image
^aThat profits him nothing?
