Isaiah 40:13-15
The Voice
13 Who has directed the Spirit of the Eternal One?
Can anyone claim to be His advisor?[a]
14 To whom did God turn for advice or instruction?
Whom did He consult about right and wrong?
Who directed Him down the path of justice or imparted to Him knowledge
or taught Him the way of understanding?
15 Face it; the nations are nothing but a drop in the bucket,
only a smidgen on the scales by the reckoning of God.
He can pick up entire islands as if they are grains of dirt.

Isaías 40:13-15
Nueva Biblia de las Américas
13 ¿Quién guió[a] al Espíritu del Señor,
O como consejero suyo le enseñó(A)?
14 ¿A quién pidió consejo y quién le dio entendimiento?
¿Quién lo instruyó en la senda de la justicia[b], le enseñó conocimiento(B),
Y le mostró el camino de la inteligencia(C)?
15 Las naciones le son como gota en un cubo,
Y son estimadas como grano de polvo en la balanza.
Él levanta las islas[c] como al polvo fino(D).
Isaiah 40:13-15
Legacy Standard Bible
13 (A)Who has [a]encompassed the Spirit of Yahweh,
Or as His (B)counselor has informed Him?
14 (C)With whom did He take counsel and who (D)gave Him understanding?
And who taught Him in the path of justice and taught Him knowledge
And made Him know the way of understanding?
15 Behold, the (E)nations are like a drop from a bucket,
And are counted as a speck of (F)dust on the scales;
Behold, He lifts up the coastlands like fine dust.
