Isaiah 40:26-28
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 40:26-28
Contemporary English Version
26 (A) Look at the evening sky!
Who created the stars?
Who gave them each a name?
Who leads them like an army?
The Lord is so powerful
that none of the stars
are ever missing.
The Lord Gives Strength
27 You people of Israel say,
“God pays no attention to us!
He doesn't care if we
are treated unjustly.”
But how can you say that?
28 Don't you know?
Haven't you heard?
The Lord is the eternal God,
Creator of the earth.
He never gets weary or tired;
his wisdom cannot be measured.
Isaiah 40:26-28
New International Version
Isaiah 40:26-28
New International Version
26 Lift up your eyes and look to the heavens:(A)
Who created(B) all these?
He who brings out the starry host(C) one by one
and calls forth each of them by name.
Because of his great power and mighty strength,(D)
not one of them is missing.(E)
27 Why do you complain, Jacob?
Why do you say, Israel,
“My way is hidden from the Lord;
my cause is disregarded by my God”?(F)
28 Do you not know?
Have you not heard?(G)
The Lord is the everlasting(H) God,
the Creator(I) of the ends of the earth.(J)
He will not grow tired or weary,(K)
and his understanding no one can fathom.(L)

Isaiah 40:26-28
King James Version
26 Lift up your eyes on high, and behold who hath created these things, that bringeth out their host by number: he calleth them all by names by the greatness of his might, for that he is strong in power; not one faileth.
27 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?
28 Hast thou not known? hast thou not heard, that the everlasting God, the Lord, the Creator of the ends of the earth, fainteth not, neither is weary? there is no searching of his understanding.
