Isaiah 41:22-23

The Voice

God and Israel now become judge and jury as the nations bring their idols and make the case that their handmade gods can indeed predict the future.

^22-23Come on and bring your idols. Now tell us what is to come,
    and while you’re at it, tell us what happened before.
Can you explain to us so that we, too, may understand?
    Go ahead, tell us what the future holds.
Surely you can, if you are truly gods. Do good, or do bad.
    Just do something—anything—to amaze or frighten us.
