Isaiah 48:13-15
International Standard Version
13 Moreover, my hands laid[a] the earth’s foundation,
and my right hand spread out the heavens.
I call out to them,
and[b] they stand up together.
14 Let all of them come together and listen:[c]
Who is there among them that could declare[d] these things?
“The Lord loves me,[e]
and he will accomplish[f] my purpose[g] against Babylon;
his arm[h] will be against the Chaldeans.
15 I—Yes, I!—have spoken;
indeed, I’ve called and[i] I’ve brought him,
and he will make his path successful.[j]
