Isaiah 43:8-13 (NRSV)

​ 8Bring forth the people who are blind, yet have eyes,
 who are deaf, yet have ears!
 9Let all the nations gather together,
 and let the peoples assemble.
 Who among them declared this,
 and foretold to us the former things?
 Let them bring their witnesses to justify them,
 and let them hear and say, "It is true."
 10You are my witnesses, says the LORD,
 and my servant whom I have chosen,
 so that you may know and believe me
 and understand that I am he.
 Before me no god was formed,
 nor shall there be any after me.
 11I, I am the LORD,
 and besides me there is no savior.
 12I declared and saved and proclaimed,
 when there was no strange god among you;
 and you are my witnesses, says the LORD.
 13I am God, and also henceforth I am He;
 there is no one who can deliver from my hand;
 I work and who can hinder it?
