Isaiah 48:9 in Context — Isaiah 48

7 Ahora han sido criadas, no en días pasados; ni antes de este día las habías oído, porque no digas: He aquí que yo lo sabía.

8 Sí, nunca lo habías oído, ni nunca lo habías conocido; ciertamente no se abrió antes tu oreja; porque sabía que desleal habías de desobedecer, por tanto te llamé rebelde desde el vientre.

9 Por amor de mi nombre dilataré mi furor, y para alabanza mía te daré largas, para no talarte.

10 He aquí te he purificado, y no como á plata; hete escogido en horno de aflicción.

11 Por mí, por amor de mí lo haré, para que no sea amancillado [mi nombre], y mi honra no la daré á otro.
