rsv Isaiah:41:1-4
rsv@Isaiah:41:1 @ Listen to me in silence, O coastlands; let the peoples renew their strength; let them approach, then let them speak; let us together draw near for judgment.
rsv@Isaiah:41:2 @ Who stirred up one from the east whom victory meets at every step? He gives up nations before him, so that he tramples kings under foot; he makes them like dust with his sword, like driven stubble with his bow.
rsv@Isaiah:41:3 @ He pursues them and passes on safely, by paths his feet have not trod.
rsv@Isaiah:41:4 @ Who has performed and done this, calling the generations from the beginning? I, the LORD, the first, and with the last; I am He.
