Isaiah 40:22-24

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

²² It is he that sitteth upon the globe of the earth, and the inhabitants thereof are as locusts: he that stretcheth out the heavens as nothing, and spreadeth them out as a tent to dwell in.

²³ He that bringeth the searchers of secrets to nothing, that hath made the judges of the earth as vanity.

²⁴ And surely their stock was neither planted, nor sown, nor rooted in the earth: suddenly he hath blown upon them, and they are withered, and a whirlwind shall take them away as stubble.
