Context
5I the LORD, and none else, no God beside me: I girded thee, though thou hast not known me:
6That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that none beside me. I the LORD, and none else.
7I form the light, and create darkness: I make peace, and create evil: I the LORD do all these
8Drop down, ye heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness: let the earth open, and let them bring forth salvation, and let righteousness spring up together; I the LORD have created it.
9Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! the potsherd with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?
10Woe unto him that saith unto father, What begettest thou? or to the woman, What hast thou brought forth?
11Thus saith the LORD, the Holy One of Israel, and his Maker, Ask me of things to come concerning my sons, and concerning the work of my hands command ye me.
