Isaiah 40:13
Compare all
11 He will afeed His flock like a shepherd;
He will gather the lambs with His arm,
And carry them in His bosom,
And gently lead those who are with young. 
12 aWho has measured the1 waters in the hollow of His hand,
Measured heaven with a1 span
And calculated the dust of the earth in a measure?
Weighed the mountains in scales
And the hills in a balance? 
13 aWho has directed the Spirit of the Lord,
Or as His counselor has taught Him? 
14 With whom did He take counsel, and who instructed Him,
And ataught Him in the path of justice?
Who taught Him knowledge,
And showed Him the way of understanding? 
15 Behold, the nations are as a drop in a bucket,
And are counted as the small dust on the scales;
Look, He lifts up the isles as a very little thing.
16 And Lebanon is not sufficient to burn,
Nor its beasts sufficient for a burnt offering.
