No God Other Than the Lord

⁶ This is what the Lord, the King of Israel and its Redeemer,^(A) the Lord of Armies, says:

¹⁷ When I saw him, I fell at his feet like a dead man.^(A) He laid his right hand on me and said, ‘Don’t be afraid. I am the First and the Last,^{(B) 18} and the Living One.^(C) I was dead, but look – I am alive for ever and ever,^(D) and I hold the keys^(E) of death and Hades.
