Isaiah 48:2-4
GOD’S WORD Translation
2 You call yourselves ⌞citizens⌟ of the holy city.
You depend on the God of Israel.
His name is the Lord of Armies.
3 From the beginning I revealed to you what would happen.
These words came out of my mouth,
and I made them known.
Suddenly, I acted, and they happened.
4 I know that you are stubborn.
Like iron, you are hardheaded.
Like bronze, nothing gets through your thick skull.
Isaiah 48:2-4
New King James Version
2 For they call themselves (A)after the holy city,
And (B)lean on the God of Israel;
The Lord of hosts is His name:
3 “I have (C)declared the former things from the beginning;
They went forth from My mouth, and I caused them to hear it.
Suddenly I did them, (D)and they came to pass.
4 Because I knew that you were [a]obstinate,
And (E)your neck was an iron sinew,
And your brow bronze,
