Isaiah 46:8-13

New Century Version

⁸ “Remember this, and do not forget it!
    Think about these things, you who turn against God.
⁹ Remember what happened long ago.
    Remember that I am God, and there is no other God.
    I am God, and there is no one like me.
¹⁰ From the beginning I told you what would happen in the end.
    A long time ago I told you things that have not yet happened.
When I plan something, it happens.
    What I want to do, I will do.
¹¹ I am calling a man from the east to carry out my plan;
    he will come like a hawk from a country far away.
I will make what I have said come true;
    I will do what I have planned.
¹² Listen to me, you stubborn people,
    who are far from what is right.
¹³ I will soon do the things that are right.
    I will bring salvation soon.
I will save Jerusalem
    and bring glory to Israel.”
