Isaiah 45:17-19
Evangelical Heritage Version
17 Israel will be saved by the Lord with everlasting salvation.
You will not be ashamed or disgraced for all eternity.
18 This is what the Lord says.
He created the heavens,
He is God!
He formed the earth and made it.
Yes, he established it!
He did not create it to remain empty.[a]
He formed it to be inhabited.
I am the Lord, and there is no other.
19 I did not speak in secret,
or from someplace in a land of darkness.
I did not say to the descendants[b] of Jacob,
“Seek me in the midst of chaos.”[c]
I, the Lord, am speaking in righteousness.
I am declaring what is right.
