“For 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.”
Isaiah 48:11 (BSB)
Context Reading
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. 12Listen to Me, O Jacob, and Israel, whom I have called: I am He; I am the first, and I am the last. 13Surely My own hand founded the earth, and My right hand spread out the heavens; when I summon them, they stand up together.
