Isaiah 41:27
Berean Standard Bible (BSB)
I was the first to tell Zion: ‘Look, here they are!’ And I gave to Jerusalem a herald of good news.
In context
25 I have raised up one from the north, and he has come— one from the east who calls on My name. He will march over rulers as if they were mortar, like a potter who treads the clay.
26 Who has declared this from the beginning, so that we may know, and from times past, so that we may say: ‘He was right’? No one announced it, no one foretold it, no one heard your words.
27 I was the first to tell Zion: ‘Look, here they are!’ And I gave to Jerusalem a herald of good news.
28 When I look, there is no one; there is no counselor among them; when I ask them, they have nothing to say.
29 See, they are all a delusion; their works amount to nothing; their images are as empty as the wind.
