Isaiah 48:8-10

New American Standard Bible 1995

⁸ “You have not ^(A)heard, you have not known.
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](B)rebel from ^[b]birth.
⁹ “^(C)For the sake of My name I ^(D)delay My wrath,
And for My praise I restrain it for you,
In order not to cut you off.
¹⁰ “Behold, I have refined you, but ^(E)not as silver;
I have tested you in the ^(F)furnace of affliction.
