Isaiah 41:26

Context

41:26 Who decreed this from the beginning, so we could know?

Who announced it¹ ahead of time, so we could say, ‘He’s correct’?

Indeed, none of them decreed it!

Indeed, none of them announced it!

Indeed, no one heard you say anything!

Isaiah 58:2

Context

58:2 They seek me day after day;

they want to know my requirements,²

like a nation that does what is right

and does not reject the law of their God.

They ask me for just decrees;

they want to be near God.

¹tn The words “who announced it” are supplied in the translation for clarification. The interrogative particle and verb are understood by ellipsis (see the preceding line).

²tn Heb “ways” (so KJV, NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, TEV); NLT “my laws.”
