Isaiah 45:11-13
English Standard Version Anglicised
11 Thus says (A)the Lord,
the Holy One of Israel, and the one who formed him:
(B)“Ask me of things to come;
will you command me (C)concerning my children and (D)the work of my hands?[a]
12 (E)I made the earth
and created man on it;
it was my hands (F)that stretched out the heavens,
and (G)I commanded all their host.
13 (H)I have stirred him up in righteousness,
(I)and I will make all his ways level;
(J)he shall build my city
(K)and set my exiles free,
not for price or reward,”
says the Lord of hosts.
