Isaiah 45:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the West, that there is none besides me. I am the Lord, and there is none other.
7 I form the [a]light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the Lord do all these things.
8 Ye heavens send the dew from above, and let the clouds drop down [b]righteousness: let the earth open, and let salvation and justice grow forth: let it bring them forth together: I the Lord have [c]created him.
