Isaiah 48:15-17
Expanded Bible

15 “I have spoken; I have called him.
    I have brought him, and I will make him successful.
16 Come to me and listen to this.
    From the ·beginning [first] I have ·spoken openly [L not spoken in secret].
From the time it ·began [happened], I was there.”

Now, the Lord God
·has sent me with his Spirit [or and his Spirit have sent me; C Cyrus is probably speaking here; vv. 14–15].

17 This is what the Lord, ·who saves you [your Redeemer],
    the Holy One of Israel [1:4], says:
“I am the Lord your God,
    who teaches you ·to do what is good [what is best; or how to succeed],
    who leads you in the way you should go.
