Isaiah 40:12-18

12Who has measured out the waters in the hollow of his hand, or carefully measured the sky, or carefully weighed the soil of the earth, or weighed the mountains in a balance, or the hills on scales?

13Who comprehends the mind of the Lord, or gives him instruction as his counselor?

14From whom does he receive directions? Who teaches him the correct way to do things, or imparts knowledge to him, or instructs him in skillful design?

15Look, the nations are like a drop in a bucket; they are regarded as dust on the scales. He lifts the coastlands as if they were dust.

16Not even Lebanon could supply enough firewood for a sacrifice; its wild animals would not provide enough burnt offerings.

17All the nations are insignificant before him; they are regarded as absolutely nothing.

18To whom can you compare God? To what image can you liken him?
