Isaiah 44:25-27

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁵ who frustrates the omens of liars,
    and makes fools of diviners;
who turns back the wise,
    and makes their knowledge foolish;
²⁶ who confirms the word of his servant,
    and fulfills the prediction of his messengers;
who says of Jerusalem, “It shall be inhabited,”
    and of the cities of Judah, “They shall be rebuilt,
    and I will raise up their ruins”;
²⁷ who says to the deep, “Be dry—
    I will dry up your rivers”;
