Isaiah 41:27-29

New Living Translation

²⁷ I was the first to tell Zion,
    ‘Look! Help is on the way!’^[a]
    I will send Jerusalem a messenger with good news.
²⁸ Not one of your idols told you this.
    Not one gave any answer when I asked.
²⁹ See, they are all foolish, worthless things.
    All your idols are as empty as the wind.
