Isaiah 48:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ So I told you about these things a long time ago.
    Before they happened, I told you about them.
Then you could not say, “My idol did them.
Yes, my wooden image and my idol made of metal
    decided that these things would happen.”
⁶ You heard what I said would happen,
    and now you have seen it happen.
    Agree that what I say is true!
Now I will tell you about new things that will happen.
    They are secret things that you do not yet know about.
⁷ They are not things that started long ago.
    I am causing them to happen now.
You did not hear about them before today.
    So you cannot say, “Yes, I already knew about them.”
