Isaiah 48:12-15

12So listen to me, descendants of Jacob! I called you to belong to me, you Israelite people. I am the only One. I am the first, and I am also the last.

13I created the earth with my own hand. With my right hand, I hung up the sky like a curtain. When I call to the stars, they all appear in their places.

14All of you, come together and listen to me. Not one of your idols has said what will happen now. I, the Lord, have chosen a friend to attack Babylon. He will do what I want. He will have the power to punish the Babylonians.

15Yes, that is what I have commanded. I have called him to do this work. I have shown him what he must do, and he will do it!
