Isaiah 48:9-11

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁹ For my name’s sake I defer my anger;
    for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you,
    so that I may not cut you off.^(A)
10 See, I have refined you but not like^[a] silver;
    I have tested you in the furnace of adversity.^(B)
11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it,
    for why should my name^[b] be profaned?
    My glory I will not give to another.^(C)
