Isaiah 45:1-3

International Children’s Bible

“I hold your right hand.
I will help you defeat nations.
    I will help you take other kings’ power away.
I will open doors for you
    so city gates will not stop you.
² I will go before you.
    And I will make the mountains flat.
I will break down the bronze gates of the cities.
    I will cut through the iron bars on the gates.
³ I will give you the wealth that is stored away.
    And I will give you hidden riches.
I will do this so you will know I am the Lord.
    I, the God of Israel, call you by name.
