Isaiah 40:22-26

22It is he that sitteth above the circleH2329 of the earthH776, and the inhabitantsH3427 thereof are as grasshoppersH2284; that stretcheth out the heavensH8064 as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tentH168 to dwellH3427 in; 23that bringeth princes to nothingH369; that maketh the judgesH8199 of the earthH776 as vanity. 24Yea, they have not been plantedH5193; yea, they have not been sownH2232; yea, their stock hath not takenH5375 rootH8327 in the earthH776: moreover he bloweth upon them, and they witherH3001, and the whirlwind taketh them awayH5375 as stubbleH7179. 25To whom then will ye likenH1819 me, that I should be equal to him? saith the HolyH6918 OneH6918. 26LiftH5375 up your eyesH5869 on highH4791, and seeH7200 who hath createdH1254 these, that bringeth out their hostH6635 by numberH4557; he calleth them all by nameH8034; by the greatnessH7230 of his might, and for that he is strong in powerH3581, not oneH376 is lacking.
