Isaiah 48:4-6

The Voice

⁴     Long ago, I figured that you’d resist
        (after all, you are a hard-headed and stubborn lot).
⁵     Way back then, I told you what would happen so that you wouldn’t claim
        that some other god was responsible—that some figurine you crafted
    From wood and molded metal commanded and accomplished it.
⁶     You’ve heard what I foretold; now you’ve seen what has happened—
        do you agree that I’m God?
    Well, from this moment, I am telling you new things,
        secrets hidden that no one has known.
