Isaiah 48:12-15
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
12 Listen to me, O Jacob,
and Israel, whom I called:
I am he; I am the first,
and I am the last.(A)
13 My hand laid the foundation of the earth,
and my right hand spread out the heavens;
when I summon them,
they stand at attention.(B)
14 Assemble, all of you, and hear!
Who among them has declared these things?
The one the Lord loves shall perform his purpose against Babylon,
and his arm shall be against the Chaldeans.(C)
15 I, even I, have spoken and called him;
I have brought him, and he will prosper in his way.(D)
Isaiah 48:12-15
Holman Christian Standard Bible
12 “Listen to Me, Jacob,
and Israel, the one called by Me:
I am He; I am the first,
I am also the last.(A)
13 My own hand founded the earth,
and My right hand spread out the heavens;(B)
when I summoned them,
they stood up together.
14 All of you, assemble and listen!
Who among the idols[a] has declared these things?
The Lord loves him;[b]
he will accomplish His will against Babylon,(C)
and His arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15 I—I have spoken;
yes, I have called him;(D)
I have brought him,
and he will succeed in his mission.(E)
