The Lord my Master says these things, “\{Tyre, I will destroy you\} and you will become an old, empty city. No one will live there. I will cause the sea to flow over you. The great sea will cover you.
Like it is written \{in the Scriptures {\cf2\super [43]} \} “I have made you (Abraham) a father of many nations.” {\cf2\super [44]} This is true before God. Abraham believed in God—the God who gives life to dead people and decides that things will happen that have not yet happened.
“‘Now, see that I and only I am God!
There is no other God!
I put people to death
and I let people live.
I can hurt people,
and I can make them well.
No one can save another person
from my power!
Abraham believed that God could raise people from death. And really, \{when God stopped Abraham from killing Isaac,\} it was like Abraham got Isaac back from death.
