46:10 who announces the end from the beginning
and reveals beforehand 1 what has not yet occurred,
who says, ‘My plan will be realized,
I will accomplish what I desire,’
46:11 who summons an eagle 2 from the east,
from a distant land, one who carries out my plan.
Yes, I have decreed, 3
yes, I will bring it to pass;
I have formulated a plan,
yes, I will carry it out.
