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.

The verse 11 is found in chapter 48 of Isaiah. Israel knows Yahweh’s name but has been stubborn. God announces new things to demonstrate that he controls history and does not share his glory with idols. Deliverance from Babylon again appears as an opportunity to listen and obey, while the chapter ends by stating that the wicked have no true peace.

Um meinetwillen, ja um meinetwillen will ich's tun, daß ich nicht gelästert werde; denn ich will meine Ehre keinem andern lassen.
Por mí, por amor de mí lo haré, para que no sea amancillado mi nombre, y mi honra no la daré a otro.
Por mí mismo, por mí mismo actuaré, porque ¿cómo podría ser profanado mi nombre? No daré mi gloria a otro.
C'est pour l'amour de moi, pour l'amour de moi, que je veux agir; Car comment mon nom serait-il profané? Je ne donnerai pas ma gloire à un autre.
Per amor di me stesso, per amor di me stesso, io farò questo; perciocchè, come sarebbe profanato il mio Nome? ed io non darò la mia gloria ad alcun altro.
Por amor de mim, por amor de mim o farei, porque, como seria profanado o meu nome? E a minha glória não a darei a outrem.
我為自己的緣故必做這事, 我豈能被褻瀆? 我必不將我的榮耀歸給別神 。
