Isaiah 45:23 I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, and shall not return:

\f + \fr 45:23-24\ft Myself, having none greater, Hebrews 6:13. --- Justice: sure. --- To me. All that are born belong to me. The Jewish women had seldom recourse to midwives, (Exodus 1:19., and 1 Kings 4:19.; Calmet) no more than the Ethiopians. (Ludolf. 1:14.) --- Swear, by the true God. (Haydock) --- Oaths on proper occasions, honour him, Deuteronomy 6:13. Nothing could be spoken more plainly of the Gentiles' conversion.
