Isaiah 41:25-29
New American Standard Bible
25 “I have put (A)one from the north into motion, and he has come;
From the rising of the sun he will call on My name;
And he will come upon rulers as upon [a](B)mortar,
As the potter treads on clay.”
26 Who has (C)declared this from the beginning, that we might know?
Or from former times, that we may say, “He is right!”?
There was (D)no one at all who declared,
There was no one at all who proclaimed,
There was no one at all who heard your words.
27 “(E)Previously I said to Zion, ‘Behold, here they are.’
And to Jerusalem, ‘I will give a (F)messenger of good news.’
28 But (G)when I look, there is no one,
And there is no (H)counselor [b]among them
Who, if I ask, can (I)give an answer.
29 Behold, all of them are [c]false;
Their (J)works are (K)nothing,
Their cast metal images are (L)wind and emptiness.

Isaiah 41:25-29
Common English Bible
25 I woke up one from the north and he came;
from the east, one who calls my name.
He tramples governors like mud,
as a potter treads clay.
26 Who announced this from the start
so that we would know;
from an earlier time
so we would say, “That’s right”?
Truly, no one announced it,
no one proclaimed it,
and no one heard your words.
27 I first said it to Zion, “Look, here they are”;
to Jerusalem I now send a herald.
28 But I look, and there’s no one
among them, no counselor;
and when I ask,
no one can answer.
29 Look, all of them are frauds;
their deeds amount to nothing;
their images are a total delusion.
