You have heard; look at all this.
And you, will you not declare it?
I caused you to hear (A)new things from this time,
Even hidden things which you have not known.
They are created now and not long ago;
And before today you have not heard them,
Lest you say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’
Indeed, you have not (B)heard; indeed, you have not known.
Indeed, even from long ago your ear has not been open
Because I knew that you would deal very treacherously;
And you have been called a [a](C)transgressor from the [b]womb.
(D)For the sake of My name I (E)delay My anger,
And for My praise I restrain it for you,
In order not to cut you off.
10 Behold, I have refined you, but (F)not as silver;
I have tested you in the (G)furnace of affliction.
11 (H)For My own sake, for My own sake, I will act;
For how can My name be profaned?
And My (I)glory I will not give to another.
