les diré el futuro antes de que suceda».

Isaías 42:9 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 42:9

Behold, the former things are come to pass
Which the Lord had foretold in former times, as to Abraham, concerning the affliction of his posterity in Egypt, the bringing them out from thence, and settling them in the land of Canaan; and other things by Moses and Joshua, and other prophets; and by Isaiah; and particularly the captivity of the ten tribes, which was now come to pass in the times of Hezekiah: and new things do I declare;
as the captivity of Judah and Benjamin, and their restoration by Cyrus; and more especially the mission and incarnation of Christ, his sufferings and death, and redemption and salvation by him; which were not only things to come, but new things, famous and excellent ones: before they spring up I tell you of them
or "before they bud forth" {r}; while the seeds of them were under ground, sown in the purposes and decrees of God, he spoke of them in prophecy; and now former prophecies being fulfilled, and new ones delivered out, concerning things of which there was no appearance, and yet there was the greatest reason to believe their accomplishment, from the fulfilment of the former; this must be a strong proof and confirmation of the Lord being the true God, and the only one.

Isaías 42:9 In-Context

7 Abrirás los ojos de los ciegos;
pondrás a los cautivos en libertad,
soltando a los que están en calabozos oscuros.

8 »¡Yo soy el Señor
; ese es mi nombre!
No le daré mi gloria a nadie más,
ni compartiré mi alabanza con ídolos tallados.

9 Todo cuanto profeticé se ha hecho realidad,
y ahora profetizaré de nuevo;
les diré el futuro antes de que suceda».

10 Canción de alabanza al Señor
¡Canten al Señor
un nuevo cántico!
¡Canten sus alabanzas desde los confines de la tierra!
Canten, ustedes que navegan los mares,
los que viven en las costas lejanas.

11 Únanse al coro, ciudades del desierto;
que las aldeas de Cedar se alegren.
Que el pueblo de Sela cante de alegría;
que grite alabanzas desde las cumbres de los montes.
