Isaiah 41:2-4
English Standard Version Anglicised
2 (A)Who stirred up one from the east
whom victory meets at every (B)step?[a]
(C)He gives up nations before him,
so that he tramples kings underfoot;
he makes them like dust with his sword,
(D)like driven stubble with his bow.
3 He pursues them and passes on safely,
by paths his feet have not trod.
4 (E)Who has performed and done this,
calling the generations from the beginning?
(F)I, the Lord, the first,
and with the last; I am he.

New International Version
2 “Who has stirred(A) up one from the east,(B)
calling him in righteousness(C) to his service[a]?(D)
He hands nations over to him
and subdues kings before him.
He turns them to dust(E) with his sword,
to windblown chaff(F) with his bow.(G)
3 He pursues them and moves on unscathed,(H)
by a path his feet have not traveled before.
4 Who has done this and carried it through,
calling(I) forth the generations from the beginning?(J)
I, the Lord—with the first of them
and with the last(K)—I am he.(L)”
