New King James Version
21 Tell and bring forth your case;
Yes, let them take counsel together.
(A)Who has declared this from ancient time?
Who has told it from that time?
Have not I, the Lord?
(B)And there is no other God besides Me,
A just God and a Savior;
There is none besides Me.
22 “Look to Me, and be saved,
(C)All you ends of the earth!
For I am God, and there is no other.
23 (D)I have sworn by Myself;
The word has gone out of My mouth in righteousness,
And shall not return,
That to Me every (E)knee shall bow,
(F)Every tongue shall take an oath.
24 He shall say,
[a]‘Surely in the Lord I have (G)righteousness and strength.
To Him men shall come,
And (H)all shall be ashamed
Who are incensed against Him.
25 (I)In the Lord all the descendants of Israel
Shall be justified, and (J)shall glory.’ ”
