Isaiah 45

Treated in 34 passages across the library.

  • 45:22 Turn toward me and be saved, every corner of the earth! I am God, and no one else is. 12
  • 45:5 I am the LORD; there is no one else. Other than me, there is no God. I will buckle your belt on you for battle, though you have not known me, 5
  • 45:23 I have taken an oath by myself; a righteous word has gone out from my mouth and will not come back unfulfilled: to me every knee will bow, and every tongue will swear loyalty to me. 3
  • 45:9 Woe to anyone who argues with the one who shaped him, one shard among the shards of earthenware! Does the clay ask its potter, "What do you think you are making?" Does your handiwork say of you, "He has no hands"? 2
  • 45:11 The LORD, the Holy One of Israel, the one who formed him, says this: Ask me about what is coming! Are you going to give me orders about my children, about the things my hands have made? 2
  • 45:15 You are indeed a God who hides himself, God of Israel, who saves! 2
  • 45:24 Of me they will say, "Only in the LORD is there righteousness and strength." Everyone who burned with anger against him will come before him in shame. 2
  • 45:25 In the LORD all Israel's descendants will be shown to be in the right, and they will rejoice proudly in him. 2
  • 45:2 I myself will march ahead of you and flatten the rough ground. I will smash bronze doors and hack through iron bars. 1
  • 45:4 It was for Jacob my servant, for Israel my chosen one, that I called you by your name and honored you with a title, even though you did not know me. 1
  • 45:19 My words were not whispered in hiding, from some corner of a dark land. I never told Jacob's offspring, "Look for me, but you will find nothing." I am the LORD: what I say is righteous, and what I announce is upright. 1
  • 45:20 Come, gather, approach together, you who escaped the nations! People who haul their wooden idols around understand nothing, praying to a god that has no power to save. 1
  • 45:21 Make your declaration and bring your evidence; let them plan their answer together! Who made this known in times long past and announced it back then? Was it not I, the LORD? No god exists other than me. I am a God who is righteous and who saves, and there is no one except me. 1
