Isaiah Chapter 48Young's Literal Translation2: For from the Holy City they have been called, And on the God of Israel been supported, Jehovah of Hosts [is] His name. 3: The former things from that time I declared, And from my mouth they have gone forth, And I proclaim them, Suddenly I have done, and it cometh. 4: From my knowing that thou art obstinate, And a sinew of iron thy neck, And thy forehead brass, 5: And I declare to thee from that time, Before it cometh I have caused thee to hear, Lest thou say, 'Mine idol hath done them, And my graven image, And my molten image did command them. 6: Thou hast heard, see the whole of it, And ye, do ye not declare? I have caused thee to hear new things from this time, And things reserved that ye knew not. 7: Now they have been produced and not from that time, Yea, before the day, and thou hast not heard them, Lest thou say, 'Lo, I have known them.' 8: Yea, thou hast not heard, Yea, thou hast not known, Yea, from that time not opened hath thine ear, For I have known thou dealest treacherously, And 'Transgressor from the belly,' One is crying to thee. 9: For My name's sake I defer Mine anger, And My praise I restrain for thee, So as not to cut thee off. 10: Lo, I have refined thee, and not with silver, I have chosen thee in a furnace of affliction. 11: For My sake, for Mine own sake, I do [it], For how is it polluted? And Mine honour to another I give not. 12: Hearken to me, O Jacob, and Israel, My called one, I [am] He, I [am] first, and I [am] last; 13: Also, My hand hath founded earth, And My right hand stretched out the heavens, I am calling unto them, they stand together. 14: Be gathered all of you, and hear, Who among them did declare these things? Jehovah hath loved him, He doth His pleasure on Babylon, And His arm [is on] the Chaldeans. 15: I -- I have spoken, yea, I have called him, I have brought him in, And he hath made prosperous his way. 16: Come ye near unto me, hear this, Not from the beginning in secret spake I, From the time of its being, there [am] I, And now the Lord Jehovah hath sent me, and His Spirit. 17: Thus said Jehovah, thy redeemer, The Holy One of Israel, 'I [am] Jehovah thy God, teaching thee to profit, Causing thee to tread in the way thou goest. 18: O that thou hadst attended to My commands, Then as a river is thy peace, And thy righteousness as billows of the sea, 19: And as sand is thy seed, And the offspring of thy bowels as its gravel, Not cut off nor destroyed his name before Me. 20: Go out from Babylon, flee from the Chaldeans, With a voice of singing declare, Cause ye this to be heard, Bring it forth unto the end of the earth, Say, Redeemed hath Jehovah His servant Jacob. 21: And they have not thirsted in waste places, He hath caused them to go on, Waters from a rock he hath caused to flow to them, Yea, he cleaveth a rock, and flow do waters. 22: There is no peace, said Jehovah, to the wicked!
