Yahweh and false gods

Isa 45:20–25

45:20 Yahweh and false gods

20 Gather together and come.

≈ Assemble together you fugitives from the nations.

Those who carry their wooden idols don’t know what’s going on—

those who pray to a god that can’t help them.

21 Declare and approach. Let them also get advice together.

Who predicted that in the past and then declared it?

Wasn’t it me, Yahweh?

There’s no god other than me—

a god who does what is right and who rescues his people.

There’s no other rescuer except me.

22 Turn to me and be saved, all you at the ends of the earth,

because I’m God and there isn’t any other.

23 I’ve solemnly promised that—

I only say what’s right and I don’t change my mind,

because every knee will bow to me.

Every tongue will promise allegiance to me.[ref]

24 They’ll say that righteousness and strength are only in Yahweh.

All those who were angry at him will come to him in their shame.

25 Yisrael’s (Israel’s) descendants will be declared innocent by Yahweh,

and they’ll boast about what he’s done for them.
