Isaiah 45:3-5

Contemporary English Version

³ I will give you treasures
hidden in dark
    and secret places.
Then you will know that I,
the Lord God of Israel,
    have called you by name.
⁴ Cyrus, you don't even know me!
But I have called you by name
    and highly honored you^[a]
because of Israel,
    my chosen servant.

⁵ Only I am the Lord!
    There are no other gods.
I have made you strong,
    though you don't know me.
