Isaiah 48:14-16
Holman Christian Standard Bible
14 All of you, assemble and listen!
Who among the idols[a] has declared these things?
The Lord loves him;[b]
he will accomplish His will against Babylon,(A)
and His arm will be against the Chaldeans.
15 I—I have spoken;
yes, I have called him;(B)
I have brought him,
and he will succeed in his mission.(C)
16 Approach Me and listen to this.
From the beginning I have not spoken in secret;(D)
from the time anything existed, I was there.”
And now the Lord God
has sent me and His Spirit.(E)
