The Lord is Israel's King and Redeemer. He is the Lord Almighty. He says,

‘I am the first and I am the last.
    There is no God, except me.
Is there anyone like me? If there is, he should say so!
    He must tell me why he thinks he is so great.
Long ago I made my people become a nation.
    Let him say what he has done since then!
    Let him tell us what will happen in future years!
My people, do not shake with fear.
Long ago I told you about things that would happen.
    You can tell people the truth about me.
You know that I am the only true God.
    There is no other Rock to keep you safe.[a]
    There surely is no other God except me.’
