10 The Lord says, “You are my witnessesand the servant I chose.I chose you so you would know and believe me,so you would understand that I am the true God.There was no God before me,and there will be no God after me.
11 I myself am the Lord;I am the only Savior.
12 I myself have spoken to you, saved you, and told you these things.It was not some foreign god among you.You are my witnesses, and I am God,”says the Lord.
13 “I have always been God.No one can save people from my power;when I do something, no one can change it.”
14 This is what the Lord, who saves you,the Holy One of Israel, says:“I will send armies to Babylon for you,and I will knock down all its locked gates.The Babylonians will shout their cries of sorrow.
15 I am the Lord, your Holy One,the Creator of Israel, your King.”
16 This is what the Lord says.He is the one who made a road through the seaand a path through rough waters.
