Isaiah 44:28
26 who fulfills the oracles of his prophetic servants and brings to pass the announcements of his messengers, who says about Jerusalem, ‘She will be inhabited,’ and about the towns of Judah, ‘They will be rebuilt, her ruins I will raise up,’ 27 who says to the deep sea, ‘Be dry! I will dry up your sea currents,’ 28 who commissions Cyrus, the one I appointed as shepherd to carry out all my wishes and to decree concerning Jerusalem, ‘She will be rebuilt,’ and concerning the temple, ‘It will be reconstructed.’
LXX Isaiah 44:28
26 and confirming the words of his servant and proving true the counsel of his messengers? The one who says to Ierousalem, “You shall be inhabited,” and to the cities of Judea, “You shall be built,” and her deserted places shall arise, 27 who says to the deep, “You will become desolate, and I will dry up your rivers,” 28 who tells Cyrus to be wise and says, “He shall carry out all my wishes,” who says to Ierousalem, “You shall be built, and I will lay the foundations of my holy house.”

"... Theologically motivated alterations are found in the books of Joshua, Chronicles, Hosea, and Isaiah ... In Isaiah 44:28, the proclamation to rebuild the temple is no longer that of Cyrus but of God himself. In Isaiah 40:26, the choice of κόσµος ('the cosmos') as the counterpart to אבצ ('army') underscores the worldwide might of God ..."
