Isaiah 40:20-22

Complete Jewish Bible

²⁰A man too poor to afford an offering
chooses a piece of wood that won’t rot,
then seeks out a skilled artisan
to prepare an image that won’t fall over.

²¹Don’t you know? Don’t you hear?
Haven’t you been told from the start?

²²He who sits above the circle of the earth —
for whom its inhabitants appear like grasshoppers —
stretches out the heavens like a curtain,
spreads them out like a tent to live in.
