The calling of God of Yisrael as witness

Isa 43:8–13

43:8 The calling of God of Yisrael as witness

8 Bring out the people with eyes who still seem blind,

≈ and those who have ears but still seem deaf.

9 All the nations have gathered together,

≈ and the peoples assemble.

Which of them could have predicted this?

≈ They announce things that have happened in the past!

Let them appoint their own witnesses so they can be justified.

≈ Let them hear and then let them say that it’s true.


10 But Yahweh declares that you all are my witnesses

≈ and my servant who I’ve chosen

so that you all can know and believe me

≈ and understand that I am God.

There’s no other god that was formed before me,

^ and none will be format after me.


11 I (and no one else) am Yahweh.

≈ and other than me, there’s no one else who can save you.

12 I have declared that I would save and I have saved,

≈ and I have proclaimed that I have done it,

and you all are my witnesses that I am God.

That is Yahweh’s declaration.

13 From the first day, I am he,

and no one can oppose my power.

I take action and who could reverse it?
