(A)Remember this, and be [a]assured;
(B)Recall it to [b]mind, you (C)wrongdoers.
Remember the (D)former things long past,
For I am God, and there is (E)no other;
I am God, and there is (F)no one like Me,
10 Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things which have not been done,
Saying, ‘(G)My plan will be established,
And I will accomplish all My good pleasure’;
11 Calling a (H)bird of prey from the (I)east,
The man of [c]My purpose from a distant country.
Truly I have (J)spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
I have planned it, I will certainly do it.

12 (K)Listen to Me, you (L)stubborn-minded,
Who are (M)far from righteousness.
13 I (N)bring near My righteousness, it is not far off;
And My salvation will not delay.
And I will grant (O)salvation in Zion,
And My (P)glory for Israel.

“Do not forget this! Keep it in mind!
    Remember this, you guilty ones.
Remember the things I have done in the past.
    For I alone am God!
    I am God, and there is none like me.
10 Only I can tell you the future
    before it even happens.
Everything I plan will come to pass,
    for I do whatever I wish.
11 I will call a swift bird of prey from the east—
    a leader from a distant land to come and do my bidding.
I have said what I would do,
    and I will do it.

12 “Listen to me, you stubborn people
    who are so far from doing right.
13 For I am ready to set things right,
    not in the distant future, but right now!
I am ready to save Jerusalem[a]
    and show my glory to Israel.
