--- title: Isaiah 45:21 — Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together… · Hebrew, tree and pragmatics description: Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old? Have not I the LORD? And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me. Who acts: ye, nations, God, none. Isaiah 45:21 in Hebre --- [Mova](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) · [this page in HTML](https://mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/ISA.45.21/) [home](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/) / [corpora](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/) / [Tanakh](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/tanakh/) / [Nevi'im](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/) / [Isaiah](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/ISA/) / [chapter 45](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/ISA/45/) / 45:21 # Isaiah 45:21 יְשַׁעְיָהוּ **Who acts:** ye, nations, God, none · **What happens:** declare, bring, let, take, announce, be · **To what, where:** nations, counsel, this This is Isaiah 45:21 from Mova's open Bible corpus, the Tanakh in three languages (Nevi'im — the Prophets). The page gives the verse in Hebrew as the Westminster Leningrad Codex has it, its syntax tree — a dependency tree in the style of Universal Dependencies, built from MACULA Hebrew — and its pragmatics: who acts — ye, nations, God, none — and what happens in the verse to nations, counsel, this, read clause by clause by Mova's frames. Beside it stand the Aramaic of Targum Jonathan and the English of the Jewish Publication Society's 1917 translation, each English sentence with a tree of its own. It is one of the 66 chapters of Isaiah on this site, all built by Mova itself from its own trees, with no large model in between. הַגִּ֣ידוּ וְהַגִּ֔ישׁוּ אַ֥ף יִֽוָּעֲצ֖וּ יַחְדָּ֑ו מִ֣י הִשְׁמִיעַ֩ זֹ֨את מִקֶּ֜דֶם מֵאָ֣ז הִגִּידָ֗הּ הֲל֨וֹא אֲנִ֤י יְהוָה֙ וְאֵֽין־ע֤וֹד אֱלֹהִים֙ מִבַּלְעָדַ֔י אֵֽל־צַדִּ֣יק וּמוֹשִׁ֔יעַ אַ֖יִן זוּלָתִֽי׃ [Declare ye, and bring them near, yea, let them take counsel together: Who hath announced this from ancient time, and declared it of old?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1023/) [Have not I the LORD?](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1024/) [And there is no God else beside Me, a just God and a Saviour; there is none beside Me.](https://md.mova.elamur.ai/free/en/corpora/neviim/jps/ISA.1025/) ## The tree {#tree} Right to left, as the Hebrew is read; a prefix or suffix is a word of its own, and a line under the words joins those written as one.
