Isaiah 41:2-4

The Voice

²     Who brought up this eastern hero? Who called up his justice service?
        He lays nations at his feet and makes an end of their kings.
    With a thrust of his sword and the bend of his bow,
        this hero turns kings and their armies into dust.
³     With agility and speed unmatched, he chases them down
        and is himself unscathed, even though he is passing over unfamiliar land.
⁴     Who has performed these deeds and accomplished this purpose?
        Who calls each generation into being from the first on down?
