Isaiah 43:6 in context

The verses around it, from Isaiah 43.

2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and when you go through the rivers, they will not overwhelm you. When you walk through the fire, you will not be scorched; the flames will not set you ablaze.

3 For I am the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior; I give Egypt for your ransom, Cush and Seba in your place.

4 Because you are precious and honored in My sight, and because I love you, I will give men in exchange for you and nations in place of your life.

5 Do not be afraid, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east and gather you from the west.

6 I will say to the north, ‘Give them up!’ and to the south, ‘Do not hold them back!’ Bring My sons from afar, and My daughters from the ends of the earth—

7 everyone called by My name and created for My glory, whom I have indeed formed and made.”

8 Bring out a people who have eyes but are blind, and who have ears but are deaf.

9 All the nations gather together and the peoples assemble. Who among them can declare this, and proclaim to us the former things? Let them present their witnesses to vindicate them, so that others may hear and say, “It is true.”

10 “You are My witnesses,” declares the LORD, “and My servant whom I have chosen, so that you may consider and believe Me and understand that I am He. Before Me no god was formed, and after Me none will come.
