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.’ ”

Isaiah 41:2-4
New International Version
2 “Who has stirred(A) up one from the east,(B)
calling him in righteousness(C) to his service[a]?(D)
He hands nations over to him
and subdues kings before him.
He turns them to dust(E) with his sword,
to windblown chaff(F) with his bow.(G)
3 He pursues them and moves on unscathed,(H)
by a path his feet have not traveled before.
4 Who has done this and carried it through,
calling(I) forth the generations from the beginning?(J)
I, the Lord—with the first of them
and with the last(K)—I am he.(L)”
