Isaiah 48:5-7

48:5 I announced them to you beforehand;

before they happened, I predicted them for you,

so you could never say,

‘My image did these things,

my idol, my cast image, decreed them.’

48:6 You have heard; now look at all the evidence! ¹ 

Will you not admit that what I say is true? ² 

From this point on I am announcing to you new events

that are previously unrevealed and you do not know about. ³ 

48:7 Now they come into being, ⁴  not in the past;

before today you did not hear about them,

so you could not say,

‘Yes, ⁵  I know about them.’
