Yahweh continues speaking to the people of Israel.
Have I not declared to you long ago, and announced it?
Yahweh uses this question to emphasize that he is the one who predicted the events that have now happened. (See: rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-rquestion)
Is there any God besides me?
Yahweh uses a question again to emphasize the that there is no other God.
There is no other Rock
