Isaiah 40:12-18

12Who has measured the waters in the hollow of his hand or marked off the heavens with the span of his hand? Who has gathered the dust of the earth in a measure or weighed the mountains on a balance and the hills on the scales?

13Who has directed the Spirit of the Lord, or who gave him counsel?

14Who did he consult? Who gave him understanding and taught him the paths of justice? Who taught him knowledge and showed him the way of understanding?

15Look, the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are considered as a speck of dust on the scales; he lifts up the islands like fine dust.

16Lebanon’s cedars are not enough for fuel, or its animals enough for a burnt offering.

17All the nations are as nothing before him; they are considered by him as empty nothingness.

18With whom will you compare God? What likeness will you set up for comparison with him?
