Isaiah 48:7 CPDV

⁵  From that time, I foretold to you. Before these things happened, I revealed them to you, lest you say: 'My idols have accomplished these things, and my graven and molten images have commanded them.'

⁶  See all the things that you have heard. But were you the ones who announced them? From that time, I caused you to hear about new things, and you do not know how these were preserved.

⁷  They are created now, and not in that time. And even before today, you did not hear of them; otherwise, you might say, 'Behold, I knew them.'

⁸  You have neither heard, nor known, nor were your ears open in that time. For I knew that you would transgress greatly, and so I called you a transgressor from the womb.

⁹  For the sake of my name, I will take the face of my fury far away. And for the sake of my praise, I will bridle you, lest you perish.
