Through My Bible Yr 2 – January 14
Bible reading based on Isaiah 48 (NIV84) 1 “Listen to this, O house of Jacob, 2 you who call yourselves citizens of the holy city 3 I foretold the former things long ago, 4 For I knew how stubborn you were;
5 Therefore I told you these things long ago; 6 You have heard these things; look at them all. 7 They are created now, and not long ago; 8 You have neither heard nor understood; 9 For my own name’s sake I delay my wrath;
10 See, I have refined you, though not as silver; 11 For my own sake, for my own sake, I do this. 12 “Listen to me, O Jacob, 13 My own hand laid the foundations of the earth, 14 “Come together, all of you, and listen: 15 I, even I, have spoken; 16 “Come near me and listen to this: 17 This is what the LORD says— 18 If only you had paid attention to my commands, 19 Your descendants would have been like the sand, 20 Leave Babylon, 21 They did not thirst when he led them through the deserts; 22 “There is no peace,” says the LORD, “for the wicked.” Through My Bible – January 14

Stubborn Israel
you who are called by the name of Israel
and come from the line of Judah,
you who take oaths in the name of the LORD
and invoke the God of Israel—
but not in truth or righteousness-
and rely on the God of Israel—
the LORD Almighty is his name:
my mouth announced them and I made them known;
then suddenly I acted, and they came to pass.
the sinews of your neck were iron,
your forehead was bronze.
before they happened I announced them to you
so that you could not say,
‘My idols did them;
my wooden image and metal god ordained them.’
Will you not admit them?
“From now on I will tell you of new things,
of hidden things unknown to you.
you have not heard of them before today.
So you cannot say,
‘Yes, I knew of them.’
from of old your ear has not been open.
Well do I know how treacherous you are;
you were called a rebel from birth.
for the sake of my praise I hold it back from you,
so as not to cut you off.
I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
How can I let myself be defamed?
I will not yield my glory to another.Israel Freed
Israel, whom I have called:
I am he;
I am the first and I am the last.
and my right hand spread out the heavens;
when I summon them,
they all stand up together.
Which of the idols has foretold these things?
The LORD’s chosen ally
will carry out his purpose against Babylon;
his arm will be against the Babylonians. [a]
yes, I have called him.
I will bring him,
and he will succeed in his mission.
“From the first announcement I have not spoken in secret;
at the time it happens, I am there.”
And now the Sovereign LORD has sent me,
with his Spirit.
your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
“I am the LORD your God,
who teaches you what is best for you,
who directs you in the way you should go.
your peace would have been like a river,
your righteousness like the waves of the sea.
your children like its numberless grains;
their name would never be cut off
nor destroyed from before me.”
flee from the Babylonians!
Announce this with shouts of joy
and proclaim it.
Send it out to the ends of the earth;
say, “The LORD has redeemed his servant Jacob.”
he made water flow for them from the rock;
he split the rock
and water gushed out.
