11 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.

12 Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted,

you who are now far from my righteousness.

13 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.

11 Calling a ravenous bird from the east,

The man that executeth my counsel from a far country:

Yea, I have spoken it, I will also bring it to pass;

I have purposed it, I will also do it.

12 Hearken unto me, ye stouthearted,

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 place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.

11 I will call a swift bird of prey from the east—

a leader from a distant land to come and do my bidding.

I have said what I would do,

and I will do it.

12 “Listen to me, you stubborn people

who are so far from doing right.

13 For I am ready to set things right,

not in the distant future, but right now!

I am ready to save Jerusalem

and show my glory to Israel.

11 Calling a bird of prey from the east,

The man who executes My counsel, from a far country.

Indeed 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 stubborn-hearted,

Who are far from righteousness:

13 I bring My righteousness near, it shall not be far off;

My salvation shall not linger.

And I will place salvation in Zion,

For Israel My glory.

11 I am calling a man from the east to carry out my plan;

he will come like a hawk from a country far away.

I will make what I have said come true;

I will do what I have planned.

12 Listen to me, you stubborn people,

who are far from what is right.

13 I will soon do the things that are right.

I will bring salvation soon.

I will save Jerusalem

and bring glory to Israel.”

11 calling a ravenous bird from the east, the man of 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 place salvation in Zion for Israel my glory.

11 calling a bird of prey from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. Yea, I have spoken, I will also bring it to pass; I have purposed it, 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 delay; and I will give salvation in Zion, and unto Israel my glory.

11 I will call a bird of prey from the east. 

I will call someone for my plan from a faraway land. 

I have spoken, and I will bring it about. 

I have planned it, and I will do it. 

12 Listen to me, you stubborn people who are far from being righteous. 

13 I’ll bring my righteousness near; it isn’t far away. 

My salvation will not be delayed. 

I’ll provide salvation for Zion 

and bring my glory to Israel. 

11 I call a bird of prey from the east,

a man for My purpose from a far country.

Yes, I have spoken; so I will also bring it about.

I have planned it; I will also do it.

12 Listen to me, you hardhearted,

far removed from justice:

13 I am bringing My justice near;

it is not far away,

and My salvation will not delay.

I will put salvation in Zion,

My splendor in Israel.

11 calling a bird of prey from the east,

the man for my purpose from a far country.

I have spoken, and I will bring it to pass;

I have planned, and I will do it.

12 Listen to me, you stubborn of heart,

you who are far from deliverance:

13 I bring near my deliverance, it is not far off,

and my salvation will not tarry;

I will put salvation in Zion,

for Israel my glory.

11 who calls a bird of prey from the east,

the man of his plan from a country from afar.

Indeed I have spoken; indeed I will bring it to being.

I have formed it; indeed I will do it.

12 Listen to me, strong of heart,

far from righteousness!

13 I bring my righteousness near; it is not far.

And my salvation will not delay;

and I will put salvation in Zion,

for Israel my glory.”

11 I will send for a man from the east to carry out my plan.

From a land far away, he will come like a bird that eats dead bodies.

I will bring about what I have said.

I will do what I have planned.

12 Listen to me, you stubborn people.

Pay attention, you who refuse to do what is right.

13 The time is almost here for me to make everything right.

It is not far away.

The time for me to save you will not be put off.

I will save the city of Zion.

I will bring honor to Israel.

11 Calling a bird of prey from the east,

The man of My purpose from a far country.

Truly I have spoken; truly I will bring it to pass.

I have planned it, surely I will do it.

12 “Listen to Me, you stubborn-minded,

Who are far from righteousness.

13 “I bring near My righteousness, it is not far off;

And My salvation will not delay.

And I will grant salvation in Zion,

And My glory for Israel.
