Isaiah 40:15-17

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁵ Even the nations are like a drop from a bucket
    and are accounted as dust on the scales;
    see, he takes up the isles like fine dust.^(A)
16 Lebanon would not provide fuel enough,
    nor are its animals enough for a burnt offering.]]^[a]
17 All the nations are as nothing before him;
    they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness.^(B)
