21 Declare and present your case;let them take counsel together!Who told this long ago?Who declared it of old?Was it not I, the Lord?And there is no other god besides me,a righteous God and a Savior;there is none besides me.
22 “Turn to me and be saved, all the ends of the earth!For I am God, and there is no other.
23 By myself I have sworn;from my mouth has gone out in righteousnessa word that shall not return: ‘To me every knee shall bow,every tongue shall swear allegiance.’
24 “Only in the Lord, it shall be said of me,are righteousness and strength;to him shall come and be ashamed all who were incensed against him.
25 In the Lord all the offspring of Israelshall be justified and shall glory.”
