Isaiah 46:8-13
Lexham English Bible
8 Remember this and pluck up courage!
Call to mind,[a] you transgressors!
9 Remember the former things from a long time ago,[b]
for I am God and there is none besides me,
God and there is none like me,
10 who from the beginning declares the end,
and from before, things that have not been done,
who says, ‘My plan shall stand,’
and, ‘I will accomplish[c] all my wishes,’[d]
11 who calls a bird of prey from the east,
the man of his[e] plan from a country from afar.
Indeed I have spoken; indeed I will bring it to being.
I have formed it; indeed I will do it.
12 Listen to me, strong of heart,
far from righteousness!
13 I bring my righteousness near; it is not far.
And my salvation will not delay;
and I will put[f] salvation in Zion,
for Israel my glory.”

(B)Recall it to [b]mind, you (C)wrongdoers.
9 Remember the (D)former things long past,
For I am God, and there is (E)no other;

And from ancient times things which have not been done,
Saying, ‘(G)My plan will be established,
And I will accomplish all My good pleasure’;

The man of [c]My purpose from a distant country.
Truly I have (J)spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
I have planned it, I will certainly do it.

Who are (M)far from righteousness.
