Esias 45:19

19 I have not spoken in secret, nor in a dark place of the earth: I said not to the seed of Jacob, Seek vanity: I, even I, am the Lord, speaking righteousness, and proclaiming truth.

Esias 45:19 In-Context

17 Israel is saved by the Lord with an everlasting salvation: they shall not be ashamed nor confounded for evermore.

18 Thus saith the Lord that made the heaven, this God that created the earth, and made it; he marked it out, he made it not in vain, but formed it to be inhabited: I am the Lord, and there is none beside.

19 I have not spoken in secret, nor in a dark place of the earth: I said not to the seed of Jacob, Seek vanity: I, even I, am the Lord, speaking righteousness, and proclaiming truth.

20 Assemble yourselves and come; take counsel together, ye that escape of the nations: they that set up wood, their graven image, have no knowledge, nor they who pray to gods that do not save.

21 If they will declare, let them draw nigh, that they may know together, who has caused these things to be heard from the beginning: then was it told you. I am God, and there is not another beside me; a just and a Saviour; there is none but me.
