That they may know from the rising of the sun, and from the west, that there is none beside me. I am the LORD, and there is none else.

The verse 6 is found in chapter 45 of Isaiah. Cyrus is called Yahweh’s anointed and receives authority to open doors and subdue nations, even though he may not personally know the God who uses him. The choice of a foreign ruler emphasizes divine sovereignty over empires. The ultimate purpose is not to glorify Cyrus, but to show that there is no God besides Yahweh.

auf daß man erfahre, von der Sonne Aufgang und der Sonne Niedergang, daß außer mir keiner sei. Ich bin der HERR, und keiner mehr;
Para que se sepa desde el nacimiento del sol, y desde donde se pone, que no hay más que yo; yo Jehová, y ninguno más que yo:
para que sepan, desde donde sale el sol hasta donde se pone, que no hay nadie fuera de mí. Yo soy Jehová, y no hay otro.
C'est afin que l'on sache, du soleil levant au soleil couchant, Que hors moi il n'y a point de Dieu: Je suis l'Eternel, et il n'y en a point d'autre.
acciocchè si conosca dal sol levante, e dal Ponente, che non vi è alcun Dio fuor che me. Io sono il Signore, e non ve n’è alcun altro;
Para que se saiba desde o nascente do sol, e desde o poente, que fora de mim não há outro; eu sou o SENHOR, e não há outro.
從日出之地到日落之處使人都知道 除我以外,沒有別的。 我是耶和華,再沒有別的了。
