Isaiah 43:16-18

New Century Version

¹⁶ This is what the Lord says.
    He is the one who made a road through the sea
    and a path through rough waters.
¹⁷ He is the one who defeated the chariots and horses
    and the mighty armies.
They fell together and will never rise again.
    They were destroyed as a flame is put out.
¹⁸ The Lord says, “Forget what happened before,
    and do not think about the past.
