Isaiah 48:6-11
Legacy Standard Bible
6 You have heard; look at all this.
And you, will you not declare it?
I caused you to hear (A)new things from this time,
Even hidden things which you have not known.
7 They are created now and not long ago;
And before today you have not heard them,
Lest you say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’
8 Indeed, you have not (B)heard; indeed, you have not known.
Indeed, even from long ago your ear has not been open
Because I knew that you would deal very treacherously;
And you have been called a [a](C)transgressor from the [b]womb.
9 (D)For the sake of My name I (E)delay My anger,
And for My praise I restrain it for you,
In order not to cut you off.
10 Behold, I have refined you, but (F)not as silver;
I have tested you in the (G)furnace of affliction.
11 (H)For My own sake, for My own sake, I will act;
For how can My name be profaned?
And My (I)glory I will not give to another.

Isaiah 48:6-11
New International Version
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,(A)
of hidden things unknown to you.
7 They are created(B) now, and not long ago;(C)
you have not heard of them before today.
So you cannot say,
‘Yes, I knew(D) of them.’
8 You have neither heard nor understood;(E)
from of old your ears(F) have not been open.
Well do I know how treacherous(G) you are;
you were called a rebel(H) from birth.
9 For my own name’s sake(I) I delay my wrath;(J)
for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,
so as not to destroy you completely.(K)
10 See, I have refined(L) you, though not as silver;
I have tested(M) you in the furnace(N) of affliction.
11 For my own sake,(O) for my own sake, I do this.
How can I let myself be defamed?(P)
I will not yield my glory to another.(Q)
