Isaiah 48:3-8
3“I adeclared the former things long agoAnd they went forth from My mouth, and I proclaimed them.
bSuddenly I acted, and they ccame to pass.
4“Because I know that you are ▼
▼ Or harsh
,
eobstinate,And your fneck is an iron sinew
And your gforehead bronze,
5Therefore I declared them to you long ago,
Before ▼
▼ Lit it
they took place I proclaimed them to you,So that you would not say, ‘My iidol has done them,
And my graven image and my molten image have commanded them.’
6“You have heard; look at all this.
And you, will you not declare it?
I proclaim to you jnew things from this time,
Even hidden things which you have not known.
7“They are created now and not long ago;
And before today you have not heard them,
So that you will not say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’
8“You have not kheard, you have not known.
Even from long ago your ear has not been open,
Because I knew that you would deal very treacherously;
And you have been called a ▼
▼ Or transgressor
,
mrebel from ▼▼ Lit the belly
birth.
