Isaiah 40:27-31
New American Standard Bible
27 (A)Why do you say, Jacob, and you assert, Israel,
“My way is (B)hidden from the Lord,
And the (C)justice due me [a]escapes the notice of (D)my God”?
28 (E)Do you not know? Have you not heard?
The (F)Everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth
Does not become weary or tired.
His understanding is (G)unsearchable.
29 He gives strength to the (H)weary,
And to the one who lacks might He (I)increases power.
30 Though (J)youths grow weary and tired,
And vigorous (K)young men stumble badly,
31 Yet those who [b]wait for the Lord
Will (L)gain new strength;
They will [c](M)mount up with wings like eagles,
They will run and not get tired,
They will walk and not become weary.

Isaiah 40:27-31
New King James Version
27 (A)Why do you say, O Jacob,
And speak, O Israel:
“My way is hidden from the Lord,
And my just claim is passed over by my God”?
28 Have you not known?
Have you not heard?
The everlasting God, the Lord,
The Creator of the ends of the earth,
Neither faints nor is weary.
(B)His understanding is unsearchable.
29 He gives power to the weak,
And to those who have no might He increases strength.
30 Even the youths shall faint and be weary,
And the young men shall utterly fall,
31 But those who (C)wait on the Lord
(D)Shall renew their strength;
They shall mount up with wings like eagles,
They shall run and not be weary,
They shall walk and not faint.
