Isaiah 40:13-19 Good News Bible (GNB)

13. Can anyone tell the Lord what to do?Who can teach him or give him advice?

14. With whom does God consultin order to know and understandand to learn how things should be done?

15. To the Lord the nations are nothing,no more than a drop of water;the distant islands are as light as dust.

16. All the animals in the forests of Lebanonare not enough for a sacrifice to our God,and its trees are too few to kindle the fire.

17. The nations are nothing at all to him.

18. To whom can God be compared?How can you describe what he is like?

19. He is not like an idol that workmen make,that metalworkers cover with goldand set in a base of silver.
