¹² I myself have ·spoken [made known] to you, saved you, and ·told [proclaimed to] you these things.
    It was not some foreign god among you.
You are my witnesses, and I am God,”
    says the Lord.
¹³     “·I have always been God [^LIndeed from the day, I am he; ^C“day” may mean the first day of creation or from this day forward].
No one can save people from my ·power [^Lhand];
when I do something, no one can ·change [undo; reverse] it.”
