2 I myself will go before you,and I will level mountains.I will shatter bronze doors;I will cut through iron bars.
3 I will give you hidden treasures of secret riches,so you will know that I am the Lord, the God of Israel, who calls you by name.
4 For the sake of my servant Jacob and Israel my chosen,I called you by name.I gave you an honored title,though you didn’t know me.
5 I am the Lord, and there is no other;besides me there is no God.I strengthen you—though you don’t know me—
6 so all will know, from the rising of the sun to its setting,that there is nothing apart from me.I am the Lord; there’s no other.
7 I form light and create darkness,make prosperity and create doom;I am the Lord, who does all these things.
8 Pour down, you heavens above,and let the clouds flow with righteousness.Let the earth open for salvation to bear fruit;let righteousness sprout as well.I, the Lord, have created these things.
