26. Who announced this from the startso that we would know;from an earlier timeso we would say, "That’s right"?Truly, no one announced it,no one proclaimed it,and no one heard your words.
27. I first said it to Zion, "Look, here they are";to Jerusalem I now send a herald.
28. But I look, and there’s no oneamong them, no counselor;and when I ask,no one can answer.
29. Look, all of them are frauds;their deeds amount to nothing;their images are a total delusion.
