Isaiah 41:1-3

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

Israel Assured of God’s Help

41 Listen to me in silence, O coastlands;
let the peoples renew their strength;
let them approach, then let them speak;
let us together draw near for judgement.

²Who has roused a victor from the east,
    summoned him to his service?
He delivers up nations to him,
    and tramples kings under foot;
he makes them like dust with his sword,
    like driven stubble with his bow.
³He pursues them and passes on safely,
    scarcely touching the path with his feet.
