Isaiah 41:26-28

Good News Translation

²⁶ Which of you predicted that this would happen,
    so that we could say that you were right?
None of you said a word about it;
    no one heard you say a thing!
²⁷ I, the Lord, was the first to tell Zion the news;
    I sent a messenger to Jerusalem to say,
    ‘Your people are coming! They are coming home!’^[a]
28 When I looked among the gods,
    none of them had a thing to say;
    not one could answer the questions I asked.
