Isaiah 41:24-26

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁴ Behold, ^(A)you are of ^[a]no account,
And ^(B)your work amounts to nothing;
He who chooses you is an ^(C)abomination.

²⁵ “I have aroused ^(D)one from the north, and he has come;
From the rising of the sun he will call on My name;
And he will come upon rulers as upon ^(E)mortar,
Even as the potter treads clay.”
²⁶ Who has ^(F)declared this from the beginning, that we might know?
Or from former times, that we may say, “He is right!”?
Surely there was ^(G)no one who declared,
Surely there was no one who proclaimed,
Surely there was no one who heard your words.
