Isaiah 48:4-8

4Because I know that you are stubborn, and your neck is iron and your forehead bronze,

5therefore I declared to you long ago. I announced it to you before it occurred, so you could not claim, ‘My idol caused them; my carved image and cast idol control them.’

6You have heard it. Observe it all. Will you not acknowledge it? From now on I will announce new things to you, hidden things that you have not known.

7They have been created now, and not long ago; you have not heard of them before today, so you could not claim, ‘I already knew them!’

8You have never heard; you have never known; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew that you were very treacherous, and were known as a rebel from birth.
