10 who tells the end at the beginning,from ancient times things not yet done,saying, "My plan will stand;all that I decide I will do,"
11 I call a bird of prey from the east,a man from a distant land for my plan.As surely as I have spoken, I’ll make it happen;I have planned, and yes, I’ll do it.
12 Listen to me, you bullheaded peoplewho are far from victory:
13 I’m bringing my victory near—it isn’t far,and my salvation—it won’t delay.I will establish salvation in Zionand grant my splendor to Israel.
