Isaiah 48:8
Berean Standard Bible
You have never heard; you have never understood; for a long time your ears have not been open. For I knew how deceitful you are; you have been called a rebel from birth.
Context
6You have heard these things; look at them all.
Will you not acknowledge them?
From now on I will tell you of new things,
hidden things unknown to you. 7They are created now, and not long ago;
you have not heard of them before today.
So you cannot claim,
‘I already knew them!’ 8You have never heard; you have never understood;
for a long time your ears have not been open.
For I knew how deceitful you are;
you have been called a rebel from birth. 9For the sake of My name I will delay My wrath;
for the sake of My praise I will restrain it,
so that you will not be cut off. 10See, I have refined you, but not as silver;
I have tested you in the furnace of affliction.
