Their land is full of gold and silver; there is no end to their wealth. Their land is full of horses; there is no end to their chariots.

Who acts and carries out decrees? Who summons the successive generations from the beginning? I, the Lord, am present at the very beginning, and at the very end -- I am the one.

who announces the end from the beginning and reveals beforehand what has not yet occurred, who says, 'My plan will be realized, I will accomplish what I desire,'

Listen to me, O Jacob, Israel, whom I summoned! I am the one; I am present at the very beginning and at the very end.
