Isaiah 41:2-4

New King James Version

² “Who raised up one ^(A)from the east?
Who in righteousness called him to His feet?
Who ^(B)gave the nations before him,
And made him rule over kings?
Who gave them as the dust to his sword,
As driven stubble to his bow?
³ Who pursued them, and passed ^[a]safely
By the way that he had not gone with his feet?
^4 (C)Who has performed and done it,
Calling the generations from the beginning?
‘I, the Lord, am ^(D)the first;
And with the last I am ^(E)He.’ ”
