Isaiah 48:9-11
King James Version
9 For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.
10 Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver; I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.
11 For mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it: for how should my name be polluted? and I will not give my glory unto another.

9 “For(A) My name’s sake (B)I will [a]defer My anger,
And for My praise I will restrain it from you,
So that I do not cut you off.
10 Behold, (C)I have refined you, but not as silver;
I have tested you in the (D)furnace of affliction.
11 For My own sake, for My own sake, I will do it;
For (E)how should My name be profaned?
And (F)I will not give My glory to another.
