39  “‘See now that ⁿI, even I, am he,

and there is no god beside me;

^oI kill and I make alive;

^pI wound and I heal;

and there is none that can deliver out of my hand.

4  Who has performed and done this,

calling the generations from the beginning?

I, the Lord, ^fthe first,

and with the last; ^gI am he.

10  ^f“You are my witnesses,” declares the Lord,

“and my servant whom I have chosen,

that you may know and believe me

and understand that ^gI am he.

Before me no god was formed,

nor shall there be any after me.

4  ^ueven to your old age ^vI am he,

and to gray hairs I will carry you.

I have made, and I will bear;

I will carry and will save.

12  “Listen to me, O Jacob,

and Israel, whom I called!

^tI am he; ^uI am the first,

and I am the last.
