​⁶You have heard; now see all this;
and will you not declare it?
From this time forward I make you hear new things,
hidden things that you have not known.
⁷They are created now, not long ago;
before today you have never heard of them,
so that you could not say, “I already 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 deal very treacherously,
and that from birth you were called a rebel.
⁹For my name’s sake I defer my anger,
for the sake of my praise I restrain it for you,
so that I may not cut you off.
¹⁰See, I have refined you, but not like silver;
I have tested you in the furnace of adversity.
¹¹For my own sake, for my own sake, I do it,
for why should my name be profaned?
My glory I will not give to another.
