Isaiah 48:5-7 I have already declared it many days ago; before it came to pass I showed it to thee: lest thou should say, My idol has done it, my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded these things.

EJ2000⁽ⁱ⁾ ⁵ I have already declared it many days ago; before it came to pass I showed it to thee: lest thou should say, My idol has done it, my graven image, and my molten image, has commanded these things. ⁶ Thou hast heard it, thou hast seen it all; and will ye not declare it? I have showed thee new things from this time, even hidden things, and thou didst not know them. ⁷ They are created now, and not in days past; nor before this day hast thou heard them lest thou should say, Behold, I knew them.
