The word “I call a ravenous bird from the east”
동방에서 독수리를 부르며 먼 나라에서 나의 모략을 이룰 사람을 부르리라는 말씀
Isaiah 46:8–13: the text says, “Remember this, and show yourselves men. Bring it to mind again, you transgressors. Remember the former things of old; for I am God, and there is no other. I am God, and there is none like me. I declare the end from the beginning, and from ancient times things that are not yet done. I say: My counsel will stand, and I will do all that I please. I call a ravenous bird from the east, the man of my counsel from a far country. Yes, I have spoken. I will also bring it to pass. I have planned. I will also do it. Listen to me, you stubborn-hearted, who are far from righteousness! I bring my righteousness near. It is not far off, and my salvation will not wait. I will grant salvation to Zion, my glory to Israel.” No verse of 46:8–13 carries a formula of the LORD’s speaking, and neither edition names the bird or the man of 46:11. The Korean Revised Version puts the calling of the man in the future (먼 나라에서 나의 모략을 이룰 사람을 부를 것이라), and reads 46:13 as 내가 나의 영광인 이스라엘을 위하여 구원을 시온에 베풀리라, where WEB reads “I will grant salvation to Zion, my glory to Israel”.
