Isaiah 48:3-7
New King James Version
3 “I have (A)declared the former things from the beginning;
They went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to hear it.
Suddenly I did them, (B)and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that you were [a]obstinate,
And (C)your neck was an iron sinew,
And your brow bronze,
5 Even from the beginning I have declared it to you;
Before it came to pass I proclaimed it to you,
Lest you should say, ‘My idol has done them,
And my carved image and my molded image
Have commanded them.’
6 “You have heard;
See all this.
And will you not declare it?
I have made you hear new things from this time,
Even hidden things, and you did not know them.
7 They are created now and not from the beginning;
And before this day you have not heard them,
Lest you should say, ‘Of course I knew them.’
