Isaiah 41:26-28
Revised Standard Version
Isaiah 41:26-28
Revised Standard Version
26 Who declared it from the beginning, that we might know,
and beforetime, that we might say, “He is right”?
There was none who declared it, none who proclaimed,
none who heard your words.
27 I first have declared it to Zion,[a]
and I give to Jerusalem a herald of good tidings.
28 But when I look there is no one;
among these there is no counselor
who, when I ask, gives an answer.

no one heard any words(C) from you.
27 I was the first to tell(D) Zion, ‘Look, here they are!’
I gave to Jerusalem a messenger of good news.(E)
28 I look but there is no one(F)—
no one among the gods to give counsel,(G)
no one to give answer(H) when I ask them.
