    in a dark place of the earth;
I did not say to the descendants of Jacob,
    “Seek Me in a waste place”;

    draw near together, you fugitives of the nations.
They have no knowledge who set up the wood of their carved image,
    and pray to a god that cannot save.
21 Declare and set forth your case;
    let them take counsel together.

a righteous God and Savior;
    there is no other besides Me.
