Isaiah 46:8-13
New International Version
Isaiah 46:8-13
New International Version
8 “Remember(A) this, keep it in mind,
take it to heart, you rebels.(B)
9 Remember the former things,(C) those of long ago;(D)
I am God, and there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like me.(E)
10 I make known the end from the beginning,(F)
from ancient times,(G) what is still to come.(H)
I say, ‘My purpose will stand,(I)
and I will do all that I please.’
11 From the east I summon(J) a bird of prey;(K)
from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose.
What I have said, that I will bring about;
what I have planned,(L) that I will do.(M)
12 Listen(N) to me, you stubborn-hearted,(O)
you who are now far from my righteousness.(P)
13 I am bringing my righteousness(Q) near,
it is not far away;
and my salvation(R) will not be delayed.
I will grant salvation to Zion,(S)
my splendor(T) to Israel.

Isaiah 46:8-13
New American Standard Bible
8 “(A)Remember this, and be [a]assured;
(B)Recall it to [b]mind, you (C)wrongdoers.
9 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.

Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 46:8-13
Contemporary English Version
8 Now keep this in mind,[a]
you sinful people.
And don't ever forget it.
The Lord Alone Is God
9 I alone am God!
There are no other gods;
no one is like me.
Think about what happened
many years ago.
10 From the very beginning,
I told what would happen
long before it took place.
I kept my word 11 and brought
someone from a distant land
to do what I wanted.
He attacked from the east,
like a hawk swooping down.
Now I will keep my promise
and do what I planned.
12 You people are stubborn
and far from being safe,
so listen to me.
13 I will soon come to save you.
I am not far away
and will waste no time;
I take pride in Israel
and will save Jerusalem.
