Isaiah 41:1-2

Names of God Bible

The Nations Chose Idols, but the Lord Chose Israel

41 “Be silent and listen to me, you coastlands.
    Let the people gain new strength.
    Let them come near and speak.
    Let us come together for judgment.

²“Who has raised up from the east
    someone to whom Yahweh gives victory with every step he takes?
        Nations are handed over to him.
            He defeats kings.
            With his sword he turns them into dust.
            With his bow he turns them into straw blown by the wind.
