Isaiah 45:5
Douay-Rheims
I am the Lord, and there is none else: there is no God, besides me: I girded thee, and thou hast not known me:
Jamieson, Fausset & Brown
(Isa 42:8; Isa 43:3, Isa 43:11; Isa 44:8; Isa 46:9). girded thee--whereas "I will loose (the girdle off) the loins of kings" (Isa 45:1), strengthening thee, but enfeebling them before thee. though . . . not known me-- (Isa 45:4). God knows His elect before they are made to know Him (Gal 4:9; Joh 15:16).
