Isaiah 45:11 in context

Isaiah 45:8–14

8

Rain, you heavens, from above,

and let the skies pour down righteousness.

Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation,

and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it.

I, the LORD, have created it.

9

Woe to him who strives with his Maker—

a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth!

Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’

or your work, ‘He has no hands’?

10

Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’

or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’”

Selected verse

The LORD, the Holy One of Israel

and his Maker says:

“You ask me about the things that are to come, concerning my sons,

and you command me concerning the work of my hands!

12

I have made the earth, and created man on it.

I, even my hands, have stretched out the heavens.

I have commanded all their army.

13

I have raised him up in righteousness,

and I will make all his ways straight.

He shall build my city,

and he shall let my exiles go free,

not for price nor reward,” says the LORD of Armies.

14

The LORD says: “The labor of Egypt,

and the merchandise of Ethiopia,

and the Sabeans, men of stature, will come over to you,

and they will be yours.

They will go after you.

They shall come over in chains.

They will bow down to you.

They will make supplication to you:

‘Surely God is in you; and there is no one else.

There is no other god.
