1"Listen to this, O house of Jacob, you who are called by the name of Israel, who have descended from the line of Judah, who swear by the name of the LORD, who invoke the God of Israel— but not in truth or righteousness—
“Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by my name of Israel, and are come forth out of 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…”
“Hear ye this, O house of Jacob, which are called by the name of Israel, and are come forth out of the waters of Judah, which swear by the name of the Lord, and make mention of the God of Israel. Yes, they do all that, but not in…”
“Hear you this. Oh house Jacob which are called by the name of Israel and are come forth out of 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.”
2who indeed call yourselves after the holy city and lean on the God of Israel; the LORD of Hosts is His name.
“For they call themselves of the holy city and stay themselves upon the God of Israel. The Lord of hosts is His name.”
“For they call themselves of the Holy City and They stay themselves on the God of Israel. The Lord of hosts is his name.”
3I foretold the former things long ago; they came out of My mouth and I proclaimed them. Suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.
“I have declared the former things from the beginning and they went forth out of my mouth and I showed them and I did Them suddenly and they came to pass”
“I have declared the former things from the beginning, and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them. I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.”
“I have declared the former things from the beginning, and they went forth out of my mouth, and I showed them. I did them suddenly, and they came to pass.”
“I have declared the former things from the beginning. And they went forth out of my mouth and I showed them. I did them suddenly and they came to pass”
4For I knew that you are stubborn; your neck is iron and your forehead is bronze.
“Because I knew that thou art obstinate and thy neck is an iron sinew and thy brow brass,”
“Because I knew that thou art obstinate and thy neck is an iron sinew and thy brow is brass.”
“Because I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is as an iron sinew, and thy brow brass.”
“I knew that thou art obstinate, and thy neck is an iron sinew, and thy brow brass.”
5Therefore I declared it to you long ago; I announced it before it came to pass, so that you could not claim, 'My idol has done this; my carved image and molten god has ordained it.'
“I have even from the beginning declared it to thee. Before it came to pass, I showed it thee, lest thou should say, mine idol hath done them. And my graven image and my molten image hath commanded them.”
“I have even from the beginning declared it to thee. Before it came to pass, I showed it thee, lest thou should say, My libel hath done them and my graven image and my molten image hath commanded them.”
6You have heard these things; look at them all. Will you not acknowledge them? From now on I will tell you of new things, hidden things unknown to you.
“Thou hast heard. See all this. And will not ye declare it? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.”
“Thou hast heard, see all this, and will not ye declare it? I have shown thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.”
“Thou hast heard, see, all this. Will not ye declare it? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them.”
7They are created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today. So you cannot claim, 'I already knew them!'
“They are created now. Now, not from the beginning. Even before the day when thou heardest them not, lest thou shouldst say, behold, I knew them.”
“They are created now and not from the beginning. Even before the day when thou heardest them, lest thou shouldst say, Behold, I knew them.”
“They are created now, and not from the beginning. Even before the day when thou heardest them not, that thou shouldst say, Behold, I heard them.”
8You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.
“Yea, thou heardest not. Yea, thou knewest not. Yea, from that time that thine ear was not open, for I knew that thou wouldst deal very treacherously, and was called a transgressor from the womb.”
“Yea, thou heardest not. Yea, thou knewest not. Yea, from the time that thine ear was not opened, for I knew that thou wouldst deal very treacherously and was called a transgressor from the womb.”
9For the sake of My name I will delay My wrath; for the sake of My praise I will restrain it, so that you will not be cut off.
“for my name's sake, I defer my anger. For the sake of my praise, I restrain it for you, that I may not cut you off.”
“For My name's sake, I will defer My anger. And for My praise, I will restrain it from you, so that I do not cut you off.”
“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.”
“for my name's sake, I will defer my anger. For my praise, I will restrain it from you, so that I do not cut you off.”
“For my name's sake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise, for my praise will I refrain for thee, that I cut thee not off.”
“For my namesake will I defer mine anger, and for my praise will I refrain for thee that I cut thee not off.”
10See, I have refined you, but not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
“Behold I have refined you but not as silver. I Have tested you in the furnace of affliction.”
“Behold, I have refined thee, but not with silver. I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction.”
“Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver. I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.”
“Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver. I have tried you in the furnace of affliction.”
“Behold, I have refined you, but not as silver. I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.”

11For My own sake, My very own sake, I will act; for how can I let Myself be defamed? I will not yield My glory to another.
“For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it. For how should my name be profaned, my glory I will not give to another.”
“For my own sake. For my own sake. I will do it. For how should my name be profaned. And I will not give my glory to another.”
“for mine own sake, even for mine own sake, will I do it. For how should my name be polluted? But I will not give my glory unto another.”
“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 to another.”
“For my own sake, for my own sake, I will do it. How should my name be profaned? And I will not give my glory to another.”
“For my own namesake. For my own namesake. I do it. For how should my name be profaned? My glory I will not give to another.”
12Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I have called: I am He; I am the first, and I am the last.
“unto me O Jacob, and Israel my call. I am he. I am the first. I also am the last.”
13Surely My own hand founded the earth, and My right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand up together.
“hand also hath laid the foundation of the earth and my right hand hath spanned the heavens. When I call unto them they stand up together.”
14Come together, all of you, and listen: Which of the idols has foretold these things? The LORD's chosen ally will carry out His desire against Babylon, and His arm will be against the Chaldeans.
“All of ye assemble yourselves in here which among them hath declared these things the Lord hath loved him. He will do his pleasure on Babylon and his arms shall be on the Chaldeans.”
15I, even I, have spoken; yes, I have called him. I have brought him, and he will succeed in his mission.
