Isaiah 46 — Context

7

They put him on their backs, and take him up, and put him in his fixed place, from which he may not be moved; if a man gives a cry for help to him, he is unable to give an answer, or get him out of his trouble.

8

Keep this in mind and be shamed; let it come back to your memory, you sinners.

9

Let the things which are past come to your memory: for I am God, and there is no other; I am God, and there is no one like me;

10

Making clear from the first what is to come, and from past times the things which have not so far come about; saying, My purpose is fixed, and I will do all my pleasure;

11

Sending for a bird of strong flight from the east, the man of my purpose from a far country; I have said it, and I will give effect to it; the thing designed by me will certainly be done.

12

Give ear to me, you feeble-hearted, who have no faith in my righteousness:

13

My righteousness is near, it is not far off; salvation will come quickly; and I will make Zion free, and give Israel my glory.
