Isaiah 45:8 in context

1. 6that they may know from the rising of the sun,
   and from the west,
   that there is no one besides me.
   I am Yahweh, and there is no one else.
2. 7I form the light
   and create darkness.
   I make peace
   and create calamity.
   I am Yahweh,
   who does all these things.
3. 8Rain, you heavens, from above,
   and let the skies pour down righteousness.
   Let the earth open, that it may produce salvation,
   and let it cause righteousness to spring up with it.
   I, Yahweh, have created it.
4. 9Woe to him who strives with his Maker—
   a clay pot among the clay pots of the earth!
   Shall the clay ask him who fashions it, ‘What are you making?’
   or your work, ‘He has no hands?’
5. 10Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What have you become the father of?’
   or to a mother, ‘What have you given birth to?’ ”
