Isaiah 40:21 in Context — Isaiah 40

19 O artífice funde a imagem, e o ourives a cobre de ouro, e cadeias de prata [lhe] funde.

20 O empobrecido, que não tem o que oferecer, escolhe madeira que não se estraga, [e] busca um artífice habilidoso, para preparar uma imagem que não se mova.

21 Por acaso não sabeis? Por acaso não ouvis? Ou desde o princípio não vos disseram? Por acaso não tendes entendido desde os fundamentos da terra?

22 Ele é o que está sentado sobre o globo da terra, cujos moradores são [para ele] como gafanhotos; ele é o que estende os céus como uma cortina, e os estica como uma tenda, para [neles] habitar.

23 Ele é o que torna os príncipes em nada, [e] faz juízes da terra serem como o vazio.
