14 Eternal One: I, the Eternal One, say to you things will change; the wealthy and strong
        of your world—Egyptians, Cushites, Sabeans—will come under your control.
    Their goods and services, their strongest warriors, will be yours,
        deferring to you, as they follow in chains, saying,
    “God is with you. There is no other God but yours.”

15 Cyrus: You have kept yourself hidden from others,
        but You are indeed God, who saved Israel in the face of great challenges.
16     Those who worshiped others will be humiliated.
        Those who craft idols will be embarrassed by their folly.

14 This is what the Lord says:

“The products(A) of Egypt and the merchandise of Cush,[a]
    and those tall Sabeans(B)
they will come over to you(C)
    and will be yours;
they will trudge behind you,(D)
    coming over to you in chains.(E)
They will bow down before you
    and plead(F) with you, saying,
‘Surely God is with you,(G) and there is no other;
    there is no other god.(H)’”

15 Truly you are a God who has been hiding(I) himself,
    the God and Savior(J) of Israel.
16 All the makers of idols will be put to shame and disgraced;(K)
    they will go off into disgrace together.
