Isaiah 45:18-20
GOD’S WORD Translation
18 The Lord created the heavens.
God formed the earth and made it.
He set it up.
He did not create it to be empty
but formed it to be inhabited.
This is what the Lord says:
I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19 I haven’t spoken privately or in some dark corner of the world.
I didn’t say to Jacob’s descendants,
“Search for me in vain!”
I, the Lord, speak what is fair and say what is right.
20 Come here, you refugees from the nations.
Ignorant people carry wooden idols
and pray to gods that cannot save ⌞anyone⌟.
Isaiah 45:18-20
New International Version
18 For this is what the Lord says—
he who created the heavens,
he is God;
he who fashioned and made the earth,(A)
he founded it;
he did not create it to be empty,(B)
but formed it to be inhabited(C)—
he says:
“I am the Lord,
and there is no other.(D)
19 I have not spoken in secret,(E)
from somewhere in a land of darkness;(F)
I have not said to Jacob’s descendants,(G)
‘Seek(H) me in vain.’
I, the Lord, speak the truth;
I declare what is right.(I)
