24 Thus says the Lord, your (A)Redeemer, and the one who (B)formed you from the womb,

“I, the Lord, am the maker of all things,
(C)Stretching out the heavens by Myself
And spreading out the earth [a]all alone,
25 (D)Causing the [b]omens of boasters to fail,
[c]Making fools out of diviners,
(E)Causing wise men to draw back
And [d]turning their knowledge into foolishness,
26 (F)Confirming the word of His servant
And [e]performing the purpose of His messengers.
It is I who says of Jerusalem, ‘She shall be inhabited!’
And of the (G)cities of Judah, ‘(H)They shall be built.’
And I will raise up her ruins again.
