Isaiah 52:4-6
Common English Bible

4 The Lord God proclaims:
Long ago my people went down
    to reside in Egypt.
    Moreover, Assyria has oppressed them without cause.
5 And now what have I here? says the Lord.
    My people are taken away for nothing.
Their rulers wail, says the Lord,
    and continually all day long my name is despised.
6 Therefore, my people will know my name on that day;
    I’m the one who promises it; I’m here.

Isaiah 52:4-6
New International Version

4 For this is what the Sovereign Lord says:

“At first my people went down to Egypt(A) to live;
    lately, Assyria(B) has oppressed them.

5 “And now what do I have here?” declares the Lord.

“For my people have been taken away for nothing,
    and those who rule them mock,[a]”
declares the Lord.
“And all day long
    my name is constantly blasphemed.(C)
6 Therefore my people will know(D) my name;(E)
    therefore in that day(F) they will know
that it is I who foretold(G) it.
    Yes, it is I.”
