Isaiah 41:21-24
New American Standard Bible
21 “[a]Present your case,” the Lord says.
“Bring forward your evidence,”
The (A)King of Jacob says.
22 (B)Let them bring them forward and declare to us what is going to take place;
As for the (C)former events, declare what they were,
So that we may consider them and know their outcome.
Or announce to us what is coming;
23 (D)Declare the things that are going to come afterward,
So that we may know that you are gods;
Indeed, (E)do good or evil, that we may be afraid and fear together.
24 Behold, (F)you are less than nothing,
And (G)your work is less than nothing!
He who chooses you is an (H)abomination.

21 Present your case, says the Lord.
Bring forward your evidence, says Jacob’s king.
22 Let the idols[a] approach
and tell us what will happen.
The prior things—what are they?
Announce them, and we’ll think about them
and know their significance.
Or proclaim to us what is to come!
23 Report things that will happen in the future,
then we’ll know that you are gods.
Do good! Or do bad!
Then we will all be afraid and fearful.
24 Look! You are nobody, and your deeds are nothing.
Whoever chooses you is disgusting.
