Isaiah 41:21-29
21ProduceH7126 your causeH7379, saithH559 YhwhH3068; bring forthH5066 your strongH6110 reasons, saithH559 the KingH4428 of JacobH3290.1
22Let them bring them forthH5066, and shewH5046 us what shall happenH7136: let them shewH5046 the former thingsH7223, what they be, that we may considerH3820H7760 them, and knowH3045 the latter endH319 of them; or declareH8085 us things for to comeH935.2
23ShewH5046 the things that are to comeH857 hereafterH268, that we may knowH3045 that ye are godsH430: yea, do goodH3190, or do evilH7489, that we may be dismayedH8159, and beholdH7200 it togetherH3162.
24Behold, ye are of nothingH369, and your workH6467 of noughtH659: an abominationH8441 is he that choosethH977 you.34
25I have raised upH5782 one from the northH6828, and he shall comeH857: from the risingH4217 of the sunH8121 shall he callH7121 upon my nameH8034: and he shall comeH935 upon princesH5461 as upon morterH2563, and as the potterH3335 treadethH7429 clayH2916.
26Who hath declaredH5046 from the beginningH7218, that we may knowH3045? and beforetimeH6440, that we may sayH559, He is righteousH6662? yea, there is none that shewethH5046, yea, there is none that declarethH8085, yea, there is none that hearethH8085 your wordsH561.
27The firstH7223 shall say to ZionH6726, BeholdH2009, beholdH2009 them: and I will giveH5414 to JerusalemH3389 one that bringeth good tidingsH1319.
28For I beheldH7200, and there was no manH376; even among them, and there was no counsellorH3289, that, when I askedH7592 of them, could answerH7725 a wordH1697.5
29Behold, they are all vanityH205; their worksH4639 are nothingH657: their molten imagesH5262 are windH7307 and confusionH8414.
