5. Fear not, for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west.
6. I will say to the north: Give up: and to the south: Keep not back: bring my sons from afar, and my daughters from the ends of the earth.

9. All the nations are assembled together, and the tribes are gathered: who among you can declare this, and shall make us hear the former things? let them bring forth their witnesses, let them be justified, and hear, and say: It is truth.
10. You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and my servant whom I have chosen: that you may know, and believe me, and understand that I myself am. Before me there was no God formed, and after me there shall be none.
11. I am, I am the Lord: and there is no saviour besides me.
12. I have declared, and have saved. I have made it heard, and there was no strange one among you. You are my witnesses, saith the Lord, and I am God.
13. And from the beginning I am the same, and there is none that can deliver out of my hand: I will work, and who shall turn it away?
14. Thus saith the Lord your redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: For your sake I sent to Babylon, and have brought down all their bars, and the Chaldeans glorying in their ships.
15. I am the Lord your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, your King.
16. Thus saith the Lord, who made a way in the sea, and a path in the mighty waters.
17. Who brought forth the chariot and the horse, the army and the strong: they lay down to sleep together, and they shall not rise again: they are broken as flax, and are extinct.
18. Remember not former things, and look not on things of old.
