Yesaya 40:18

40:18 To whom can you compare God?

To what image can you liken him?

Yesaya 43:11-13

43:11 I, I am the Lord,

and there is no deliverer besides me.

43:12 I decreed and delivered and proclaimed,

and there was no other god among you.

You are my witnesses,” says the Lord, “that I am God.

43:13 From this day forward I am he;

no one can deliver from my power; ² 

I will act, and who can prevent it?”

Yesaya 66:8

66:8 Who has ever heard of such a thing?

Who has ever seen this?

Can a country ³  be brought forth in one day?

Can a nation be born in a single moment?

Yet as soon as Zion goes into labor she gives birth to sons!
