New International Version
Isaiah 40:22-24
New International Version
22 He sits enthroned(A) above the circle of the earth,
and its people are like grasshoppers.(B)
He stretches out the heavens(C) like a canopy,(D)
and spreads them out like a tent(E) to live in.(F)
23 He brings princes(G) to naught
and reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.(H)
24 No sooner are they planted,
no sooner are they sown,
no sooner do they take root(I) in the ground,
than he blows(J) on them and they wither,(K)
and a whirlwind sweeps them away like chaff.(L)

Isaiah 40:22-24
King James Version
22 It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as grasshoppers; that stretcheth out the heavens as a curtain, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in:
23 That bringeth the princes to nothing; he maketh the judges of the earth as vanity.
24 Yea, they shall not be planted; yea, they shall not be sown: yea, their stock shall not take root in the earth: and he shall also blow upon them, and they shall wither, and the whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.
