Isaiah 48:7 in context
- 5therefore I have declared it to thee from of old; before it came to pass I showed it thee; lest thou shouldest say, Mine idol hath done them, and my graven image, and my molten image, hath commanded them.
- 6Thou hast heard it; behold all this; and ye, will ye not declare it? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, which thou hast not known.
- 7They are created now, and not from of old; and before this day thou heardest them not; lest thou shouldest say, Behold, I knew them.
- 8Yea, thou heardest not; yea, thou knewest not; yea, from of old thine ear was not opened: for I knew that thou didst deal very treacherously, and wast called a transgressor from the womb.
- 9For my name’s sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
