Isaiah 48:9
Berean Standard Bible
For 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.
Context
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. 11For My own sake, My very own sake, I will act;
for how can I let Myself be defamed?
I will not yield My glory to another.
