The Pulpit Commentary on Isaiah 43:26

The Pulpit Commentary · Joseph S. Exell and contributors · Public domain

Put me in remembrance. Either, ironically, "Remind me of thy good deeds; plead thy cause with me on that ground; show the merits that justify thee;" or else seriously, "Remind me of my promises; plead them before me; declare them, that by my free grace I may justify thee."

The latter is the more probable interpretation.
