There Is No Other God
And his Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
a‘I am the First and I am the Last;
Besides Me there is no God.
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.
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
And their precious things shall not profit;
They are their own witnesses;
bThey neither see nor know, that they may be ashamed.
