The verse from Isaiah about God creating evil, IIRC, is talking about 'evil' in the sense of 'physical disaster' - not in the sense that God somehow contradicted his own nature to create the opposite.

The words used in the verse in Isaiah for create and evil, are the same words used in Genesis for the Creation and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

bara' -- create

ra` -- evil

(the transliterations are from the Blueletterbible)

Here's an article discussing this verse, and why 'evil' should be taken to mean 'disaster' and not 'immorality.'
