Isaiah 44:5-7
Living Bible
5 “I am the Lord’s,” they’ll proudly[a] say, or, “I am a Jew,” and tattoo upon their hands the name of God or the honored name of Israel.
6 The Lord, the King of Israel, says—yes, it is Israel’s Redeemer, the Lord Almighty, who says it—I am the First and Last; there is no other God. 7 Who else can tell you what is going to happen in the days ahead? Let them tell you if they can and prove their power. Let them do as I have done since ancient times.

Isaiah 44:5-7
New International Version
5 Some will say, ‘I belong(A) to the Lord’;
others will call themselves by the name of Jacob;
still others will write on their hand,(B) ‘The Lord’s,’(C)
and will take the name Israel.
The Lord, Not Idols
6 “This is what the Lord says—
Israel’s King(D) and Redeemer,(E) the Lord Almighty:
I am the first and I am the last;(F)
apart from me there is no God.(G)
7 Who then is like me?(H) Let him proclaim it.
Let him declare and lay out before me
what has happened since I established my ancient people,
and what is yet to come—
yes, let them foretell(I) what will come.
