Isaiah 40:12-14
International Standard Version
Isaiah 40:12-14
International Standard Version
Who is Like the Lord?
12 “Who has measured the waters of the sea[a]
in the hollow of his hand
and marked off the heavens
by the width of his hand?[b]
Who has enclosed the dust of the earth
in a measuring bowl,
or weighed the mountains
in scales
and the hills in a balance?
13 Who has fathomed the Spirit of the Lord,
or as his counselor has taught him?[c]
14 With whom did he consult
to enlighten and instruct him on the path of justice?
Or who taught him knowledge
and showed him the way of wisdom?
