Isaiah 48:2-4

Common English Bible

²     They are known as residents of the holy city,
        those who depend upon the God of Israel—
        the Lord of heavenly forces is his name.
³ Past things I announced long ago;
    from my mouth I proclaimed them.
    I acted suddenly, and they came about.
⁴ Because I know that you are stubborn,
    your neck is made of iron,
    and your forehead is bronze.
