Isaiah 48:4-8

4Because I know that you are obstinate, and your neck is an iron sinew and your forehead brass,

5I declared them to you from of old, before they came to pass I announced them to you, lest you should say, 'My idol did them, my carved image and my metal image commanded them.'

6"You have heard; now see all this; and will you not declare it? From this time forth I announce to you new things, hidden things that you have not known.

7They are created now, not long ago; before today you have never heard of them, lest you should say, 'Behold, I knew them.'

8You have never heard, you have never known, from of old your ear has not been opened. For I knew that you would surely deal treacherously, and that from before birth you were called a rebel.
