8 “Remember this, and be assured. Recall it to mind, you transgressors.
9 Remember the former things of old: For I am God—there is no other. I am God, and there is none like Me—
10 declaring the end from the beginning, from ancient time, what is yet to come, saying, “My purpose will stand, and I will accomplish all that I please.”
11 From the east I am calling a bird of prey, a man for My purpose from a far country. Truly I have spoken; I will bring it to pass; I have planned it; surely I will do it.
12 Listen to Me, you stubborn-hearted, who are far from righteousness:
13 I bring My justice near, it is not far off. So My salvation will not delay. I put salvation in Zion, My glory in Israel.”
