Isaiah 40:12-22

12Who hath comprehendedH4058 the watersH4325 in the hollow of his handH8168, and measuredH8505 heavenH8064 with the spanH2239, and comprehendedH3557 the dustH6083 of the earthH776 in a measureH7991, and weighedH8254 the mountainsH2022 in scalesH6425, and the hillsH1389 in a balanceH3976?1 13Who hath directedH8505 the SpiritH7307 of the LORDH3068, or being his counsellorH376H6098 hath taughtH3045 him?2 14With whom took he counselH3289, and who instructedH995 him, and taughtH3925 him in the pathH734 of judgmentH4941, and taughtH3925 him knowledgeH1847, and showedH3045 to him the wayH1870 of understandingH8394?34 15Behold, the nationsH1471 are as a dropH4752 of a bucketH1805, and are countedH2803 as the small dustH7834 of the balanceH3976: behold, he taketh upH5190 the islesH339 as a very little thingH1851. 16And LebanonH3844 is notH369 sufficientH1767 to burnH1197, nor its beastsH2416 sufficientH1767 for a burnt offeringH5930. 17All nationsH1471 before him are as nothing; and they are countedH2803 to him less than nothingH657, and vanityH8414.

18To whom then will ye likenH1819 GodH410? or what likenessH1823 will ye compareH6186 him to? 19The workmanH2796 castethH5258 a graven imageH6459, and the goldsmithH6884 spreadethH7554 it over with goldH2091, and castethH6884 silverH3701 chainsH7577. 20He that is so impoverishedH5533H5534 that he hath no oblationH8641 choosethH977 a treeH6086 that will not rotH7537; he seekethH1245 for himself a skilfulH2450 workmanH2796 to prepareH3559 a graven imageH6459, that shall not be movedH4131.5 21Have ye not knownH3045? have ye not heardH8085? hath it not been toldH5046 you from the beginningH7218? have ye not understoodH995 from the foundationsH4146 of the earthH776? 22It is he that sittethH3427 upon the circleH2329 of the earthH776, and its inhabitantsH3427 are as grasshoppersH2284; that stretcheth outH5186 the heavensH8064 as a curtainH1852, and spreadeth them outH4969 as a tentH168 to dwell inH3427:6
