Isaiah 45:12

Cyrus, God's Instrument

¹¹ This is what the Lord,
the Holy One of Israel and its Maker, says:
“Ask Me what is to happen to My sons,
and instruct Me about the work of My hands.
¹² I made the earth,
and created man on it.
It was My hands that stretched out the heavens,
and I commanded all their host.
¹³ I have raised him up in righteousness,
and will level all roads for him.
He will rebuild My city,
and set My exiles free,
not for a price or a bribe,”
says the Lord of Hosts.
