Isaiah

Isaiah 45:12–13

12It is I who made the earth

and created man upon it.

It was My hands that stretched out the heavens,

and I ordained all their host.

13I will raise up Cyrus in righteousness,

and I will make all his ways straight.

He will rebuild My city

and set My exiles free,

but not for payment or reward,

says the LORD of Hosts.”
