Isaiah 43:9
Compare all
7 Everyone who is acalled by My name,
Whom bI have created for My glory;
I have formed him, yes, I have made him.” 
8 aBring out the blind people who have eyes,
And the bdeaf who have ears. 
9 Let all the nations be gathered together,
And let the people be assembled.
aWho among them can declare this,
And show us former things?
Let them bring out their witnesses, that they may be justified;
Or let them hear and say, “It is truth.” 
10 “Youa are My witnesses,” says the Lord,
b“And My servant whom I have chosen,
That you may know and cbelieve Me,
And understand that I am He.
Before Me there was no God formed,
Nor shall there be after Me. 
11 I, even I, aam the Lord,
And besides Me there is no savior. 
12 I have declared and saved,
I have proclaimed,
And there was no aforeign god among you;
bTherefore you are My witnesses,”
Says the Lord, “that I am God.

What Does Isaiah 43:9 Mean?



Isaiah 43:8-9

The scene Isaiah is describing is a court of law. God is saying, "Okay, you bring your witnesses, and I will bring Mine." What does a witness do? In a court of law, a witness gives testimony of things he has seen or heard.
