Isaiah 41:24-26
Modern English Version
24 Indeed you are nothing,
and your work amounts to nothing;
he who chooses you is an abomination.
25 I have raised up one from the north, and he shall come;
from the rising of the sun he shall call on My name;
and he shall come on princes as on mortar,
and as the potter treads clay.
26 Who has declared from the beginning, that we may know?
And from former times, that we may say, “He is right!”?
There is no one who shows,
no one who declares,
no one who hears your words.
Isaiah 41:24-26
New International Version
24 But you are less than nothing(A)
and your works are utterly worthless;(B)
whoever chooses you is detestable.(C)
25 “I have stirred(D) up one from the north,(E) and he comes—
one from the rising sun who calls on my name.
He treads(F) on rulers as if they were mortar,
as if he were a potter treading the clay.
26 Who told of this from the beginning,(G) so we could know,
or beforehand, so we could say, ‘He was right’?
No one told of this,
no one foretold(H) it,
no one heard any words(I) from you.
