Isaiah 44:25-27

Contemporary English Version

^25 (A) I make liars of false prophets
    and fools of fortunetellers.
I take human wisdom
    and turn it into nonsense.
²⁶ I will make the message
    of my prophets come true.
They are saying, “Jerusalem
    will be filled with people,
and the Lord will rebuild
    the towns of Judah.”

²⁷ I am the one who commands
the sea and its streams
    to run dry.
