Isaiah 46:7–13
7 “They alift it upon the shoulder and carry it;
They set it in its place and it stands there.
bIt does not move from its place.
Though one may cry to it, it ccannot answer;
It dcannot deliver him from his distress.
8 “aRemember this, and be 1assured;
bRecall it to 2mind, you ctransgressors.
9 “Remember the aformer things long past,
For I am God, and there is bno other;
I am God, and there is cno one like Me,
10 Declaring the end from the beginning,
And from ancient times things which have not been done,
Saying, ‘aMy purpose will be established,
And I will accomplish all My good pleasure’;
11 Calling a abird of prey from the beast,
The man of 1My purpose from a far country.
Truly I have cspoken; truly I will bring it to pass.
I have planned it, surely I will do it.
12 “aListen to Me, you bstubborn-minded,
Who are cfar from righteousness.
13 “I abring near My righteousness, it is not far off;
And My salvation will not delay.
And I will grant bsalvation in Zion,
And My cglory for Israel.
