Isaiah 41:25-27

New Century Version

²⁵ “I have brought someone to come out of the north^[a]
    I have called by name a man from the east, and he knows me.
He walks on kings as if they were mud,
    just as a potter walks on the clay.
²⁶ Who told us about this before it happened?
    Who told us ahead of time so we could say, ‘He was right’?
None of you told us anything;
    none of you told us before it happened;
    no one heard you tell about it.
²⁷ I, the Lord, was the first one to tell Jerusalem that the people were coming home.
    I sent a messenger to Jerusalem with the good news.
