6 “Thus says the Lord, the (A)King of Israel and his (B)Redeemer, the Lord of hosts:
‘I am the (C)first and I am the last,
And there is no God (D)besides Me.
7
‘Who is like Me? (E)Let him proclaim and declare it;
Yes, let him recount it to Me in order,
(a)From the time that I established the ancient (b)nation.
And let them declare to them the things that are coming
And the events that are going to take place.
8
‘Do not tremble and do not be afraid;
(F)Have I not long since announced it to you and declared it?
And (G)you are My witnesses.
Is there any God (H)besides Me,
Or is there any other (I)Rock?
I know of none.’”
