Isaiah 44:6-8
1599 Geneva Bible
6 Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel and his redeemer, the Lord of hosts, [a]I am the first, and I am the last, and without me is there no God.
7 And who is like me, that shall [b]call and shall declare it, and set [c]it in order before me, since I appointed the [d]ancient people? and what is at hand, and what things are to come? let [e]them show unto them.
8 Fear ye not, neither be afraid: have not I told thee of old, and have declared it? [f]you are even my witnesses, whether there be a God beside me, and that there is no God that I know not.
