Isaiah 44:26

²⁵ who destroys the omens of the false prophets

who confounds the wise
and makes their knowledge foolishness;
²⁶ who confirms the message of His servant
and fulfills the counsel of His messengers;

and I will restore her ruins;
²⁷ who says to the depths of the sea, “Be dry,”
and I will dry up your rivers;

It is I

Will Be Saved
