Isaiah 40:21-23
Amplified Bible
21
Do you [who worship idols] not know? Have you not heard?
Has it not been told to you from the beginning?
Have you not understood from the foundations of the earth [the omnipotence of God and the stupidity of bowing to idols]?(A)
22
It is He who sits above the circle of the earth,
And its inhabitants are like grasshoppers;
[It is He] who stretches out the heavens like a veil
And spreads them out like a tent to dwell in.
23
It is He who reduces dignitaries to nothing,
Who makes the judges (rulers) of the earth meaningless (useless).
Isaiah 40:21-23
New International Version

Have you not heard?(A)

and its people are like grasshoppers.(G)
He stretches out the heavens(H) like a canopy,(I)
and spreads them out like a tent(J) to live in.(K)
23 He brings princes(L) to naught
and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.(M)
