Isaiah 43:6

I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;
4

Since thou wast precious in my sight, thou hast been honourable, and I have loved thee: therefore will I give men for thee, and people for thy life.

5

Fear not: for I am with thee: I will bring thy seed from the east, and gather thee from the west;

6

I will say to the north, Give up; and to the south, Keep not back: bring my sons from far, and my daughters from the ends of the earth;

7

Even every one that is called by my name: for I have created him for my glory, I have formed him; yea, I have made him.

8

Bring forth the blind people that have eyes, and the deaf that have ears.

Counter-Arguments

The strongest case that this verse does not belong in this theme.

Dominion Over Creation

This verse describes a divine command to geographical directions (north and south) to release and gather people, specifically "sons" and "daughters," rather than humanity being given authority to rule over the earth or living things. The "dominion" here is God's over creation, not humanity's.

Stewardship of Creation

This verse focuses on the gathering of people ("my sons and my daughters") from various geographical directions, not on humanity's role in tending or managing the natural world. There is no mention of the garden, care for the earth, or any responsibility related to creation.
