Isaiah 45:21

Declare ye, and approach; 1 yes, let them take counsel together. 1 Who hath made this known from mikedem (from olden time)? 1 Who hath preached it from long ago? 1 Have not I, Hashem? 1 And there is no other Elohim besides Me: 1 El Tzaddik and Moshi'a; 1 there is none besides Me. 1

Orthodox Jewish Bible

In The King James Version

Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside me.
