Israel Is Yahweh’s Witness
8 Bring out the people who are ablind, even though they have eyes,
And the deaf, even though they have ears.
9 All the nations have agathered together
So that the peoples may be assembled.
Who among them can bdeclare this
And make us hear the former things?
Let them present ctheir witnesses dthat they may be justified,
Or let them hear and say, “It is true.”
10 “You are aMy witnesses,” declares Yahweh,
“And bMy servant whom I have chosen,
So that you may know and believe Me
And understand that cI am He.
dBefore Me there was no god formed,
And there will be none after Me.
11 I, even I, am Yahweh,
And there is no asavior bbesides Me.
12 It is I who have declared and saved and caused it to be heard,
And there was no astrange god among you;
So you are My witnesses,” declares Yahweh,
“And I am God.
13 Even afrom eternity bI am He,
And there is cnone who can deliver out of My hand;
dI act and who can reverse it?”
