Isaiah 44:24-28
English Standard Version
24 Thus says the Lord, (A)your Redeemer,
(B)who formed you from the womb:
(C)“I am the Lord, who made all things,
(D)who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth by myself,
25 who frustrates the signs of liars
and makes fools of diviners,
(E)who turns wise men back
and makes their knowledge foolish,
26 (F)who confirms the word of his servant
and fulfills the counsel of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be inhabited,’
(G)and of the cities of Judah, ‘They shall be built,
and I will raise up their ruins’;
27 (H)who says to the deep, ‘Be dry;
I will dry up your rivers’;
28 who says of (I)Cyrus, ‘He is (J)my shepherd,
and he shall fulfill all my purpose’;
saying of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be built,’
(K)and of the temple, ‘Your foundation shall be laid.’”
Isaiah 44:24-28
International Standard Version
24 “This is what the Lord says, your Redeemer
and the one who formed you in the womb:
‘I am the Lord, who has made everything,
who alone stretched out the heavens,
who spread out the earth—
Who was with me at that time?—[a]
25 who frustrates the omens of idle talkers,
and drives diviners mad,
who turns back the wise,
and makes their knowledge foolish;[b]
26 who carries out the words of his servants,
and fulfills the predictions of his messengers,
who says of Jerusalem, “It will be inhabited,”
and of Judah’s cities, “They will be rebuilt,”
and of her ruins, “I’ll raise them up”;
27 who says to the watery deep, “Be dry—
I will dry up your rivers;”
28 who says about Cyrus, “He’s my shepherd,
and he’ll carry out everything that I please:
He’ll say of Jerusalem, ‘Let it be rebuilt,’
and of my[c] Temple, ‘Let its foundations be laid again.’”’”
