Isaiah 41:1-4

Holman Christian Standard Bible

41 “Be silent before Me, islands!^(A)
And let peoples renew their strength.
Let them approach, then let them testify;
let us come together for the trial.
² Who has stirred him up from the east?^(B)
He calls righteousness to his feet.^[a](C)
The Lord hands nations over to him,^(D)
and he subdues kings.
He makes them like dust with his sword,
like wind-driven stubble with his bow.
³ He pursues them, going on safely,
hardly touching the path with his feet.
⁴ Who has performed and done this,
calling the generations from the beginning?
I, Yahweh, am the first,
and with the last^(E)—I am He.”^(F)
