Isaiah 48:10-12

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹⁰ Behold I have refined thee, but not as silver, I have chosen thee in the furnace of poverty.

¹¹ For my own sake, for my own sake will I do it, that I may not be blasphemed: and I will not give my glory to another.

¹² Hearken to me, O Jacob, and thou Israel whom I call: I am he, I am the first, and I am the last.
