Isaiah 43:17 in context

The verses around it, from Isaiah 43.

13 Even from eternity I am He, and none can deliver out of My hand. When I act, who can reverse it?”

14 Thus says the LORD your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel: “For your sake, I will send to Babylon and bring them all as fugitives, even the Chaldeans, in the ships in which they rejoice.

15 I am the LORD, your Holy One, the Creator of Israel, and your King.”

16 Thus says the LORD, who makes a way in the sea and a path through the surging waters,

17 who brings out the chariots and horses, the armies and warriors together, to lie down, never to rise again; to be extinguished, snuffed out like a wick:

18 “Do not call to mind the former things; pay no attention to the things of old.

19 Behold, I am about to do something new; even now it is coming. Do you not see it? Indeed, I will make a way in the wilderness and streams in the desert.

20 The beasts of the field will honor Me, the jackals and the ostriches, because I provide water in the wilderness and rivers in the desert, to give drink to My chosen people.

21 The people I formed for Myself will declare My praise.
