‏ Isaiah 48:5-7

5 aI declared them to you from of old,
before they came to pass I announced them to you,
lest you should say, b‘My idol did them,
my carved image and my metal image commanded them.’
6“You have heard; now see all this;
and will you not declare it?
From this time forth cI announce to you new things,
hidden things that you have not known.
7They are created now, not long ago;
before today you have never heard of them,
lest you should say, ‘Behold, I knew them.’
