Isaiah 40:21-23

Good News Translation

²¹ Do you not know?
    Were you not told long ago?
    Have you not heard how the world began?
²² It was made by the one who sits on his throne
    above the earth and beyond the sky;
    the people below look as tiny as ants.
He stretched out the sky like a curtain,
    like a tent in which to live.

²³ He brings down powerful rulers
    and reduces them to nothing.
