Isaiah 48:14-16
Lexham English Bible
14 Assemble, all of you, and hear!
Who among them declared these things?
Yahweh loves him;
he shall perform[a] his wish against Babylon
and his arm against the Chaldeans.[b]
15 I, I myself, I have spoken!
Indeed, I have called him.
I have brought him,
and he will be successful in his way.
16 Draw near to me; hear this! I have not spoken in secrecy from the beginning;[c]
from the time it came to be,[d] there I have been;
And now the Lord Yahweh has sent me and his Spirit.”
