9“Remember what happened in the past.

Think about what took place long ago.

I am God. There is no other God.

I am God. There is no one like me.

10Before something even happens, I announce how it will end.

In fact, from times long ago I announced what was still to come.

I say, ‘My plan will succeed.

I will do anything I want to do.’

11I 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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

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.

KJV 1900King James Version

Remember the former things of old:

For I am God, and there is none else;

I am God, and there is none like me,

Declaring the end from the beginning,

And from ancient times the things that are not yet done,

Saying, My counsel shall stand,

And I will do all my pleasure:

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.
