Isaiah 41:22-24
Holman Christian Standard Bible
22 “Let them come and tell us
what will happen.(A)
Tell us the past events,
so that we may reflect on them
and know the outcome,
or tell us the future.
23 Tell us the coming events,(B)
then we will know that you are gods.
Indeed, do something good or bad,
then we will be in awe[a] and perceive.
24 Look, you are nothing(C)
and your work is worthless.
Anyone who chooses you is detestable.
