Isaiah 43:9

Let all the nations be gathered (h) together, and let the people be assembled: who among them can declare this, and show us former things? let them bring forth their (i) witnesses, that they may be justified: or let them (k) hear, and say, [It is] truth.

(h) Signifying that no power can resist him in doing this miraculous work, nor are all their idols able to do the same, as in (Isaiah 41:22).

(i) To prove that the things which are spoken of them are true.

(k) Showing that the malice of the wicked hinders them in the knowledge of the truth, because they will not hear when God speaks by his word.
