Isaiah:41:21-29

*
Produce your cause ,
saith the LORD ;
bring forth your strong reasons ,
saith the King of Jacob .
*
Let them bring them forth ,
and shew us what shall happen :
let them shew the former things ,
what they be ,
that we may consider them ,
and know the latter end of them ;
or declare us things for to come .
*
Shew the things that are to come hereafter ,
that we may know that ye are gods :
yea ,
do good ,
or do evil ,
that we may be dismayed ,
and behold it together .
*
Behold ,
ye are of nothing ,
and your work of nought :
an abomination is he that chooseth you .
*
I have raised up one from the north ,
and he shall come :
from the rising of the sun shall he call upon my name :
and he shall come upon princes as upon morter ,
and as the potter treadeth clay .
*
Who hath declared from the beginning ,
that we may know ?
and beforetime ,
that we may say ,
He is righteous ?
yea ,
there is none that sheweth ,
yea ,
there is none that declareth ,
yea ,
there is none that heareth your words .
*
The first shall say to Zion ,
Behold ,
behold them :
and I will give to Jerusalem one that bringeth good tidings .
*
For I beheld ,
and there was no man ;
even among them ,
and there was no counsellor ,
that ,
when I asked of them ,
could answer a word .
*
Behold ,
they are all vanity ;
their works are nothing :
their molten images are wind and confusion .
