Isaiah 40:21-25 Holman Christian Standard Bible (HCSB)

21. Do you not know? Have you not heard?Has it not been declared to youfrom the beginning?Have you not consideredthe foundations of the earth?

22. God is enthroned above the circle of the earth;its inhabitants are like grasshoppers. He stretches out the heavens like thin cloth and spreads them out like a tent to live in.

23. He reduces princes to nothing and makes judges of the earth irrational.

24. They are barely planted, barely sown,their stem hardly takes root in the groundwhen He blows on them and they wither,and a whirlwind carries them away like stubble.

25. “Who will you compare Me to, or who is My equal? ” asks the Holy One.
