Isaiah 48:1-6
Legacy Standard Bible
My Glory I Will Not Give to Another
48 “(A)Hear this, O house of Jacob, who are called by the name Israel
And who came forth from the [a](B)loins of Judah,
Who (C)swear by the name of Yahweh
And bring to remembrance the God of Israel,
But not in truth or in (D)righteousness.
2 For they call themselves after the (E)holy city
And (F)are supported by the God of Israel;
Yahweh of hosts is His name.
3 I (G)declared the former things long ago,
And they went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to be heard.
(H)Suddenly I acted, and they (I)came to pass.
4 Because I know that you are [b](J)stiff,
And your (K)neck is an iron sinew
And your (L)forehead bronze,
5 Therefore I declared them to you long ago,
Before [c]they happened I caused them to be heard by you,
Lest you say, ‘My (M)idol has done them,
And my graven image and my molten image have commanded them.’
6 You have heard; look at all this.
And you, will you not declare it?
I caused you to hear (N)new things from this time,
Even hidden things which you have not known.

Stubborn Israel
48 “Listen to this, you descendants of Jacob,
you who are called by the name of Israel(A)
and come from the line of Judah,(B)
you who take oaths(C) in the name of the Lord(D)
and invoke(E) the God of Israel—
but not in truth(F) or righteousness—
2 you who call yourselves citizens of the holy city(G)
and claim to rely(H) on the God of Israel—
the Lord Almighty is his name:(I)
3 I foretold the former things(J) long ago,
my mouth announced(K) them and I made them known;
then suddenly(L) I acted, and they came to pass.
4 For I knew how stubborn(M) you were;
your neck muscles(N) were iron,
your forehead(O) was bronze.
5 Therefore I told you these things long ago;
before they happened I announced(P) them to you
so that you could not say,
‘My images brought them about;(Q)
my wooden image and metal god ordained them.’
6 You have heard these things; look at them all.
Will you not admit them?
“From now on I will tell you of new things,(R)
of hidden things unknown to you.
