¹² Listen to me, O Jacob,
    and Israel, whom I have called.
I am he; I am the first
    and I am the last.
¹³ My hand laid the foundations of the earth,
    and my right hand spread out the heavens;
when I summon them,
    they all present themselves immediately.
¹⁴ Assemble, all of you, and listen!
    Who among the idols has revealed what will happen—
that he whom I love^[a] will do my will
    against Babylon and the Chaldeans?
