Isaiah 48:9-11
Christian Standard Bible
9 I will delay my anger for the sake of my name,
and I will restrain myself for your benefit and for my praise,
so that you will not be destroyed.
10 Look, I have refined you,(A) but not as silver;
I have tested[a] you in the furnace of affliction.
11 I will act for my own sake, indeed, my own,(B)
for how can I[b] be defiled?
I will not give my glory to another.(C)
Isaiah 48:9-11

9 For my own name’s sake(A) I delay my wrath;(B)
for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,
so as not to destroy you completely.(C)
10 See, I have refined(D) you, though not as silver;
I have tested(E) you in the furnace(F) of affliction.
11 For my own sake,(G) for my own sake, I do this.
How can I let myself be defamed?(H)
I will not yield my glory to another.(I)
