Isaiah 40:27-31
271Why do you say, O Jacob, and assert, O Israel, “My way is 2hidden from the Lord, And the 3justice due me 4escapes the notice of 5my God”?286Do you not know? Have you not heard? The 7Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth Does not become weary or tired. His understanding is 8inscrutable.29He gives strength to the 9weary, And to him who lacks might He 10increases power.30Though 11youths grow weary and tired, And vigorous 12young men stumble badly,31Yet those who 13wait for the Lord Will 14gain new strength; They will 1516mount up with 17wings like eagles, They will run and not get tired, They will walk and not become weary.
