New Testament

Isaiah 41:20-25 International Children’s Bible (ICB)

20. People will see these things and understand.Together they will think carefully about these things.They will know that the Lord’s power did this.They will know that the Holy One of Israel made these things.”

21. The Lord says, “Present your case.”The Lord, the King of Jacob, says, “Tell me your arguments.

22. Bring in your idols to tell uswhat is going to happen.Have them tell us what happened in the beginning.Then we will think about these things.Then we will know how they will turn out.Tell us what will happen in the future.

23. Tell us what is coming next.Then we will believe that you are gods.Do something, whether it is good or bad.Make us afraid of you.

24. You false gods are less than nothing.You can’t do anything.Those who worship you should be hated.”

25. “I have brought someone to come out of the north.I have called by name a man from the east, and he knows me.He walks on kings as if they were mud.He walks on them as a potter walks on the clay.
