⁹ Remember the former^[a] things that took place long ago,
for I am God, and there is no other.
I am God, and there is no one like me.
¹⁰ I am the one who announces the final outcome already in the beginning.
I announce ahead of time things that have not yet been done.
I am the one who says, “My plan will stand,
and I will do everything I want to do.”
