Isaiah 45:9-13
Legacy Standard Bible
9 “Woe to the one who (A)contends with his [a]Maker—
An earthenware vessel [b]among the vessels of earth!
Will the (B)clay say to the [c]potter, ‘What are you doing?’
Or the thing you are making say, ‘He has no hands’?
10 Woe to him who says to a father, ‘What are you begetting?’
Or to a woman, ‘With what are you in labor pains?’”
11 Thus says (C)Yahweh, the Holy One of Israel, and his [d](D)Maker:
“[e](E)Ask Me about the things that are to come [f]concerning My (F)sons,
And you shall [g]commit to Me (G)the work of My hands.
12 It is I who (H)made the earth and created man upon it.
I (I)stretched out the heavens with My hands,
And I commanded (J)all their host.
13 I have awakened him in (K)righteousness,
And I will (L)make all his ways smooth;
He will (M)build My city and will (N)let My exiles go,
Without any payment or reward,” says Yahweh of hosts.
