Isaiah 48:7

7 They are created now, not in the past. You haven't heard about them before today, so you can't say that you already knew about them.

Isaiah 48:7 In-Context

5 That is why I revealed to you what would happen long ago. I told you about them before they happened. [I did this] so you couldn't say, "My gods have done these things. My carved idols and my metal idols have commanded them to happen."
6 You've heard these words. Now look at all this. Won't you admit it? From now on I will reveal to you new things, hidden things that you do not know.
7 They are created now, not in the past. You haven't heard about them before today, so you can't say that you already knew about them.
8 You have never heard about them. You have never known about them. Your ears have never been open to hear them before. I know that you've acted very treacherously and that you have been called a rebel since you were born.
9 For my name's sake I'll be patient. For my glory's sake I'll hold my anger back from you, rather than destroy you.
