Isaiah 46:8-13

New Living Translation

⁸ “Do not forget this! Keep it in mind!
    Remember this, you guilty ones.
⁹ 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.
