Isaiah 48:5-7

New Living Translation

⁵ That is why I told you what would happen;
    I told you beforehand what I was going to do.
Then you could never say, ‘My idols did it.
    My wooden image and metal god commanded it to happen!’
⁶ You have heard my predictions and seen them fulfilled,
    but you refuse to admit it.
Now I will tell you new things,
    secrets you have not yet heard.
⁷ They are brand new, not things from the past.
    So you cannot say, ‘We knew that all the time!’
