“I have sworn by myself, the word has gone out of my mouth in righteousness, and will not return, that to me every knee shall bow, every tongue shall take an oath.”

“I have sworn by myself, the word of justice shall go out of my mouth, and shall not return:”

Assemble yourselves, and approach, and draw near together, you who have been saved among the Gentiles. They lack knowledge, who lift up the wood of their sculpture, and who petition a god unable to save.
Announce it, and approach, and consult together. Who has caused this to be heard from the beginning, and who has foretold it from that time? Is it not I, the Lord? And is there some other god beside me? I am a just God who saves, and there is no one except me.
All ends of the earth, be converted to me, and you will be saved. For I am God, and there is no other.
I have sworn by myself. The Word of justice will proceed from my mouth, and it will not turn back.
For every knee shall bend to me, and every tongue shall swear it.
Therefore, he will say, “In the Lord are my justices and my dominion.” They will go to him. And all who fight against him will be confounded.
In the Lord, all the offspring of Israel will be justified and praised.
