Isaiah 40:15-17
English Standard Version
15 Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket,
and are accounted (A)as the dust on the scales;
behold, he takes up (B)the coastlands like fine dust.
16 Lebanon would not suffice for fuel,
nor are (C)its beasts enough for a burnt offering.
17 (D)All the nations are as nothing before him,
they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness.
Isaiah 40:15-17
Common English Bible
15 Look, the nations are like a drop in a bucket,
and valued as dust on a scale.
Look, God weighs the islands like fine dust.
16 Lebanon doesn’t have enough fuel;
its animals aren’t enough for an entirely burned offering.
17 All the nations are like nothing before God.
They are viewed as less than nothing and emptiness.
