Isaiah 41:21-23
Holman Christian Standard Bible
21 “Submit your case,” says the Lord.
“Present your arguments,” says Jacob’s King.
22 “Let them come and tell us
what will happen.(A)
Tell us the past events,
so that we may reflect on them
and know the outcome,
or tell us the future.
23 Tell us the coming events,(B)
then we will know that you are gods.
Indeed, do something good or bad,
then we will be in awe[a] and perceive.
