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

I have purposed it, I will also do it.

12Hearken unto me, cye stouthearted,

That are far from righteousness:

ESVEnglish Standard Version

remember the former things of old;

for I am God, and there is no other;

I am God, and there is none like me,

declaring the end from the beginning

and from ancient times things not yet done,

saying, ‘My counsel shall stand,

and I will accomplish all my purpose,’

calling a bird of prey from the east,

the man of my counsel from a far country.

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

I have purposed, and I will do it.

“Listen to me, you stubborn of heart,

you who are far from righteousness:

NIVNew International Version (2011)

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.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

Remember what happened long ago,

for I am God, and there is no other;

I am God, and no one is like me.

I declare the end from the beginning,

and from long ago what is not yet done,

saying: my plan will take place,

and I will do all my will.

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.

Listen to me, you hardhearted,

far removed from justice:

NLTNew Living Translation

Remember the things I have done in the past.

For I alone am God!

I am God, and there is none like me.

Only I can tell you the future

before it even happens.

Everything I plan will come to pass,

for I do whatever I wish.

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.

“Listen to me, you stubborn people

who are so far from doing right.

LEBThe Lexham English Bible

Remember the former things from a long time ago,

for I am God and there is none besides me,

God and there is none like me,

who from the beginning declares the end,

and from before, things that have not been done,

who says, ‘My plan shall stand,’

and, ‘I will accomplish all my wishes,’

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.

Listen to me, strong of heart,

far from righteousness!
