(Isaiah 40:25-31)
To whom can the holy God be compared?
Is there anyone else like him?
Look up the sky!
Who created the stars you see?
The one who leads them out like an army,
he knows how many there are and calls
each one by name!
His power is so great-
not one of them is ever missing!
Israel, why then do you complain
that the Lord doesn’t know your troubles
or care if you suffer injustice?
Don’t you know? Haven’t you heard?
The Lord is the everlasting God;
He created all the world.
He never grows tired or weary.
No one understands his thoughts.
He strengthens those who are weak and tied.
Even those who are young grow weak;
young men can fall exhausted.
But those who trust in the Lord for help
will find their strength renewed.
They will rise on wings like eagles;
they will run and not get weary;
they will walk and not grow weak.
