Isaiah 66:8
New King James Version
8 Who has heard such a thing?
Who has seen such things?
Shall the earth be made to give birth in one day?
Or shall a nation be born at once?
For as soon as Zion was in labor,
She gave birth to her children.
Isaiah 64:4
New King James Version
4 For since the beginning of the world
(A)Men have not heard nor perceived by the ear,
Nor has the eye seen any God besides You,
Who acts for the one who waits for Him.
1 Corinthians 2:9
New King James Version
9 But as it is written:
(A)“Eye has not seen, nor ear heard,
Nor have entered into the heart of man
The things which God has prepared for those who love Him.”
Romans 15:18-21
New King James Version
18 For I will not dare to speak of any of those things (A)which Christ has not accomplished through me, in word and deed, (B)to make the Gentiles obedient— 19 (C)in mighty signs and wonders, by the power of the Spirit of God, so that from Jerusalem and round about to Illyricum I have fully preached the gospel of Christ. 20 And so I have made it my aim to preach the gospel, not where Christ was named, (D)lest I should build on another man’s foundation, 21 but as it is written:
(E)“To whom He was not announced, they shall see;
And those who have not heard shall understand.”
Isaiah 49:20-22
New King James Version
20 (A)The children you will have,
(B)After you have lost the others,
Will say again in your ears,
‘The place is too small for me;
Give me a place where I may dwell.’
21 Then you will say in your heart,
‘Who has begotten these for me,
Since I have lost my children and am desolate,
A captive, and wandering to and fro?
And who has brought these up?
There I was, left alone;
But these, where were they?’ ”
22 (C)Thus says the Lord God:
“Behold, I will lift My hand in an oath to the nations,
And set up My [a]standard for the peoples;
They shall bring your sons in their [b]arms,
And your daughters shall be carried on their shoulders;
