“Remember this, and [a]show yourselves men;
(A)Recall to mind, O you transgressors.
(B)Remember the former things of old,
For I am God, and (C)there is no other;
I am God, and there is none like Me,
10 (D)Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things that are not yet done,
Saying, (E)‘My counsel shall stand,
And I will do all My pleasure,’
11 Calling a bird of prey (F)from the east,
The man (G)who executes My counsel, from a far country.
Indeed (H)I have spoken it;
I will also bring it to pass.
I have purposed it;
I will also do it.

12 “Listen to Me, you (I)stubborn-hearted,
(J)Who are far from righteousness:
13 (K)I bring My righteousness near, it shall not be far off;
My salvation (L)shall not [b]linger.
And I will place (M)salvation in Zion,
For Israel My glory.

Remember this, and [a]show yourselves men; bring it again to mind, O ye transgressors. Remember the former things of old: [b]for I am God, and there is none else; I am God, and there is none like me; 10 declaring the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done; saying, My counsel shall stand, and I will do all my pleasure; 11 calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of [c]my counsel from a far country; yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed, I will also do it.

12 Hearken unto me, ye stout-hearted, that are far from righteousness: 13 I bring near my righteousness, it shall not be far off, and my salvation shall not tarry; and I will [d]place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.
