Isaias

12 Who hath measured the waters with the hollow of his hand, and meted out the heavens with the span, and comprehended the dust of the earth in a measure, and weighed the mountains in a balance, and the hills in scales?

13 Who hath meted out the Spirit of the Lord, and, as the man of his counsel, made him to know;

14 With whom took he counsel, and he caused him to discern, and taught him in the path of judgment, and taught him know- ledge, and made him to know the way of discernment?

15 Behold, nations (are) as a drop from a bucket, and are counted as a grain on the scales: behold, he will lift up the isles as fine dust.

16 And Lebanon is not sufficient for burning, nor its beasts sufficient for (a burnt) sacrifice.

17 All the nations are as nothing before him, and are counted to him as of nought, and waste. ’

18 And to whom will ye liken God? and what likeness will ye compare unto him?

19 The graven image, a craftsman melteth it, and the smelter] ’covereth it with gold, and smelteth silver chains.
