Isaiah 48:1-3
1599 Geneva Bible
48 1 The hypocrisy of the Jews is reproved. 12 The Lord alone will be worshipped. 20 Of their deliverance out of Babylon.
1 Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are [a]called by the name of Israel, and are come out of [b]the waters of Judah: which swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel, but not in truth nor in righteousness.
2 For they are called of the holy city, and stay themselves [c]upon the God of Israel, whose Name is the Lord of hosts.
3 I have declared the former things of old, and they went out of my mouth, and I showed [d]them: I did them suddenly and they came to pass.
