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

  1. 46:13 Hebrew Zion.

“Remember this and stand firm,
    recall it to mind, (A)you transgressors,
    remember the former things of old;
for I am God, and there is no other;
    I am God, and there is none like me,
10 (B)declaring the end from the beginning
    and from ancient times things not yet done,
saying, (C)‘My counsel shall stand,
    and I will accomplish all my purpose,’
11 (D)calling a bird of prey from the east,
    the man of my counsel from a far country.
(E)I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass;
    I have purposed, and I will do it.

12 “Listen to me, you stubborn of heart,
    you who are far from righteousness:
13 (F)I bring near my righteousness; it is not far off,
    and my salvation will not delay;
(G)I will put salvation in Zion,
    for Israel my glory.”
