Isaiah 41:27-29

Expanded Bible

²⁷ I, the Lord, was the first one to tell ·Jerusalem [^LZion] ·that the people were coming home [or “Look, help is coming!”; ^L“Look, here they are!”].
    I sent a messenger to Jerusalem with the good news.
²⁸ I ·look at the idols [^Llook], but there is ·not one that can answer [^Lno one/man].
    None of them can give ·advice [counsel];
    none of them can answer my questions.
²⁹ Look, all these idols are ·false [a deception/delusion; or foolish; worthless].
    They cannot do anything;
their images are ·worth nothing [wind and confusion/chaos; or empty wind].
