Isaiah 41:22-24
International Children’s Bible
22 Bring in your idols to tell us
what is going to happen.
Have them tell us what happened in the beginning.
Then we will think about these things.
Then we will know how they will turn out.
Tell us what will happen in the future.
23 Tell us what is coming next.
Then we will believe that you are gods.
Do something, whether it is good or bad.
Make us afraid of you.
24 You false gods are less than nothing.
You can’t do anything.
Those who worship you should be hated.”
Isaiah 41:22-24
New International Version
22 “Tell us, you idols,
what is going to happen.(A)
Tell us what the former things(B) were,
so that we may consider them
and know their final outcome.
Or declare to us the things to come,(C)
23 tell us what the future holds,
so we may know(D) that you are gods.
Do something, whether good or bad,(E)
so that we will be dismayed(F) and filled with fear.
24 But you are less than nothing(G)
and your works are utterly worthless;(H)
whoever chooses you is detestable.(I)
