Isaiah 40:18–25

¹⁸To whom then have you likened God? or what image will you make for him?

¹⁹Hath the workman cast a graven statue? or hath the goldsmith formed it with gold, or the silversmith with plates of silver?

²⁰He hath chosen strong wood, and that will not rot: the skilful workman seeketh how he may set up an idol that may not be moved.

²¹Do you not know? hath it not been heard? hath it not been told you from the beginning? have you not understood the foundations of the earth?

²²It is he that sitteth upon the globe of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as locusts: he that stretcheth out the heavens as nothing, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.

²³He that bringeth the searchers of secrets to nothing, that hath made the judges of the earth as vanity.

²⁴And surely their stock was neither planted, nor sown, nor rooted in the earth: suddenly he hath blown upon them, and they are withered, and a whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.

²⁵And to whom have ye likened me, or made me equal, saith the Holy One?
