13 I have awakened him in righteousness, and I will make straight all his ways; he shall build my city, and he shall loose my captives, not for price nor for bribes, saith the Lord of the hosts.
14 Thus saith the Lord, The labour of Egypt, and merchandise of Ethiopia and of the Sabeans, men of stature, shall come over unto thee, and they shall be thine: they shall come after thee; in chains they shall come over, and they shall fall down unto thee; they shall make supplication unto thee, saying, Surely God is in thee; and there is no one else; there is none other beside God.
15 Verily thou art God, that thou might hide thyself; God of Israel, who saves.
16 They shall be ashamed and also confounded, all of them; all the makers of idols shall go forth ashamed.
17 Israel is saved in the Lord, eternal salvation; ye shall never be ashamed nor confounded through all ages.
18 For thus has the Lord said that creates the heavens; God himself that forms the earth, he who made it and established it. He did not create it in vain; he created it to be inhabited; I am the Lord; and there is no one else.
19 I have not spoken in secret in a dark place of the earth. Not without substance did I say unto the seed of Jacob, Seek ye me; I am the Lord who speaks righteousness, who declares things that are right.
