Isaiah:48:8-11

*
Yea ,
thou heardest not ;
yea ,
thou knewest not ;
yea ,
from that time that thine ear was not opened :
for I knew that thou wouldest deal very treacherously ,
and wast called a transgressor from the womb .
*
For my names sake will I defer mine anger ,
and for my praise will I refrain for thee ,
that I cut thee not off .
*
Behold ,
I have refined thee ,
but not with silver ;
I have chosen thee in the furnace of affliction .
*
For mine own sake ,
even for mine own sake ,
will I do it :
for how should my name be polluted ?
and I will not give my glory unto another .
