Isaiah 46:9-13

Isaiah 46:9-13 

Remember the former things, those of long ago;

    I am God, and there is no other;
    I am God, and there is none like me.
I make known the end from the beginning,
    from ancient times, what is still to come.

I say, ‘My purpose will stand,
    and I will do all that I please.’

From the east I summon a bird of prey;

    from a far-off land, a man to fulfill my purpose.

What I have said, that I will bring about;
    what I have planned, that I will do.
Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted,
    you who are now far from my righteousness.
I am bringing my righteousness near,
    it is not far away;
    and my salvation will not be delayed.

I will grant salvation to Zion,

    my splendor to Israel.
