26aLift up your eyes on high

And see bwho has created these stars,

The cOne who leads forth their host by number,

He calls them all by name;

Because of the dgreatness of His might and the 1strength of His power,

eNot one of them is missing.

27aWhy do you say, O Jacob, and assert, O Israel,

“My way is bhidden from the Lord,

And the cjustice due me 1escapes the notice of dmy God”?

Read in Logos
Isaiah 40:26: Lift up your eyes on high and see: who created these? He who brings out their host by number, calling them all by name, by the greatness of his might, and because he is strong in power not one is missing.

O Israel, how can you say God ignores your rights?

And behold who hath created these things,

That bringeth out their host by number:

He calleth them all by names

Not one faileth.

Why sayest thou, O Jacob, and speakest, O Israel,

My way is hid from the Lord,

And my judgment is passed over from my God?
