Isaiah 45:7

Berean Standard Bible (BSB)

I form the light and create the darkness; I bring prosperity and create calamity. I, the LORD, do all these things.

In context

5 I am the LORD, and there is no other; there is no God but Me. I will equip you for battle, though you have not known Me,

6 so that all may know, from where the sun rises to where it sets, that there is none but Me; I am the LORD, and there is no other.

7 I form the light and create the darkness; I bring prosperity and create calamity. I, the LORD, do all these things.

8 Drip down, O heavens, from above, and let the skies pour down righteousness. Let the earth open up that salvation may sprout and righteousness spring up with it; I, the LORD, have created it.

9 Woe to him who quarrels with his Maker— one clay pot among many. Does the clay ask the potter, ‘What are you making?’ Does your work say, ‘He has no hands’?
