Isaiah 40:21-23
International Children’s Bible
21 Surely you know. Surely you have heard.
Surely in the beginning someone told you.
Surely you understand how the earth was created.
22 God sits on his throne above the circle of the earth.
And compared to him, people are like grasshoppers.
He stretches out the skies like a piece of cloth.
He spreads them out like a tent to sit under.
23 He makes rulers unimportant.
He makes the judges of this world worth nothing.
Isaiah 40:21-23

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)
