Isaiah 48:13

10 See, I have been testing you for myself like silver; I have put you through the fire of trouble.

11 For myself, even because of my name, I will do it; for I will not let my name be shamed; and my glory I will not give to another.

12 Give ear to me, Jacob, and Israel, my loved one; I am he, I am the first and I am the last.

13 Yes, by my hand was the earth placed on its base, and by my right hand the heavens were stretched out; at my word they take up their places.

14 Come together, all of you, and give ear; who among you has given news of these things? the Lord's loved one will do his pleasure with Babylon, and with the seed of the Chaldaeans.

15 I, even I, have given the word; I have sent for him: I have made him come, and have given effect to his undertakings.

16 Come near to me, and give ear to this; from the start I did not keep it secret; from the time of its coming into existence I was there: and now the Lord God has sent me, and given me his spirit.
