Isaiah 48:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 All of you assemble and listen:
Who among you declared these things?
The one the Lord loves[a] shall do his will
against Babylon and the offspring of Chaldea.
15 I myself have spoken, I have summoned him,
I have brought him, and his way succeeds!
16 Come near to me and hear this!
From the beginning I did not speak in secret;
At the time it happens, I am there:
“Now the Lord God has sent me, and his spirit.”[b]
Isaiah 48:14-16
New International Version
14 “Come together,(A) all of you, and listen:
Which of the idols has foretold(B) these things?
The Lord’s chosen ally(C)
will carry out his purpose(D) against Babylon;(E)
his arm will be against the Babylonians.[a]
15 I, even I, have spoken;
yes, I have called(F) him.
I will bring him,
and he will succeed(G) in his mission.
16 “Come near(H) me and listen(I) to this:
“From the first announcement I have not spoken in secret;(J)
at the time it happens, I am there.”
