5 Don’t be afraid; for I am with you.I will bring your offspring from the east,and gather you from the west.
6 I will tell the north, ‘Give them up!’and tell the south, ‘Don’t hold them back!Bring my sons from far,and my daughters from the ends of the earth—
7 everyone who is called by my name,and whom I have created for my glory,whom I have formed,yes, whom I have made.’”
8 Bring out the blind people who have eyes,and the deaf who have ears.
9 Let all the nations be gathered together,and let the peoples be assembled.Who among them can declare this,and show us former things?Let them bring their witnesses, that they may be justified;or let them hear, and say, “That is true.”
10 “You are my witnesses,” says the Lord,“With my servant whom I have chosen;that you may know and believe me,and understand that I am he.Before me there was no God formed,neither will there be after me.
11 I myself am the Lord;and besides me there is no savior.
