Isaiah 41:22 Context
20That they may see, and knowe, and consider, and vnderstand together, that the hand of the Lord hath done this, and the Holy One of Israel hath created it. 21Produce your cause, saith the Lord, bring foorth your strong reasons, saith the King of Iacob. 22Let them bring them foorth, and shew vs what shall happen: let them shew the former things what they bee, that we may consider them, and know the latter end of them, or declare vs things for to come. 23Shewe the things that are to come hereafter, that wee may knowe that ye are gods: yea doe good or doe euill, that we may be dismayed, and behold it together. 24Behold, ye are of nothing, and your worke of nought: an abomination is he that chooseth you.
