He considers all the nations on earth to be nothing. He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven. He does what he wants with the nations of the earth. No one can hold back his hand. No one can say to him,“ What have you done?”

All the peoples of the earth are regarded as nothing. He does as he pleases with the powers of heaven and the peoples of the earth. No one can hold back his hand or say to him:“ What have you done?”

all the inhabitants of the earth are accounted as nothing, and he does according to his will among the host of heaven and among the inhabitants of the earth; and none can stay his hand or say to him,“ What have you done?”

All the people of the earth are nothing compared to him. He does as he pleases among the angels of heaven and among the people of the earth. No one can stop him or say to him,‘ What do you mean by doing these things?’

All the inhabitants of the earth are counted as nothing, and he does what he wants with the army of heaven and the inhabitants of the earth. There is no one who can block his hand or say to him,“ What have you done?”

All the inhabitants of the earth are of no account, But He does according to His will among the army of heaven And among the inhabitants of earth; And no one can fend off His hand Or say to Him,‘ What have You done?’

Our God is in heaven. He does anything he wants to do.

The nations are only a drop in a bucket to him. He considers them as nothing but dust on the scales. He weighs the islands as if they were only fine dust.Lebanon doesn’t have enough trees to keep his altar fires burning. It doesn’t have enough animals to sacrifice as burnt offerings to him.To him, all the nations don’t amount to anything. He considers them to be worthless. In fact, they are less than nothing in his sight.

“ I know that you can do anything. No one can keep you from doing what you plan to do.

The Lord does anything he wants to do in the heavens and on the earth. He does it even in the deepest parts of the oceans.

“ And that is not all! I have always been God, and I always will be. No one can save people from my power. When I do something, who can undo it?”

We were also chosen to belong to him. God decided to choose us long ago in keeping with his plan. He works out everything to fit his plan and purpose.

They did what your power and purpose had already decided should happen.

How very rich are God’s wisdom and knowledge! How he judges is more than we can understand! The way he deals with people is more than we can know!“ Who can ever know what the Lord is thinking? Or who can ever give him advice?”( Isaiah 40:13)“ Has anyone ever given anything to God, so that God has to pay them back?”( Job 41:11)All things come from him. All things are directed by him. All things are for his praise. May God be given the glory forever! Amen.

One of you will say to me,“ Then why does God still blame us? Who can oppose what he wants to do?”But you are a mere human being. So who are you to talk back to God? Scripture says,“ Can what is made say to the one who made it,‘ Why did you make me like this?’ ”( Isaiah 29:16; 45:9)

At that time Jesus said,“ I praise you, Father. You are Lord of heaven and earth. You have hidden these things from wise and educated people. But you have shown them to little children.Yes, Father. This is what you wanted to do.

But if their plans come from God, you won’t be able to stop these men. You will only find yourselves fighting against God.”

“ Who can ever know what is in the Lord’s mind? Can anyone ever teach him?”( Isaiah 40:13) But we have the mind of Christ.

How terrible it will be for anyone who argues with their Maker! They are like a broken piece of pottery lying on the ground. Does clay say to a potter,“ What are you making?” Does a pot say,“ The potter doesn’t have any skill”?How terrible it will be for anyone who says to a father,“ Why did you give me life?” How terrible for anyone who says to a mother,“ Why have you brought me into the world?”The Lord is the Holy One of Israel. He made them. He says to them,“ Are you asking me about what will happen to my children? Are you telling me what I should do with what my hands have made?

If he really wanted to, he could hold back his spirit and breath.Then everyone would die together. They would return to the dust.

My heart longs for you at night. My spirit longs for you in the morning. You will come and judge the earth. Then the people of the world will learn to do what is right.

Let the whole earth have respect for the Lord. Let all the people in the world honor him.He spoke, and the world came into being. He commanded, and it stood firm.The Lord blocks the sinful plans of the nations. He keeps them from doing what they want to do.But the plans of the Lord stand firm forever. What he wants to do will last for all time.

If he takes something, who can stop him? Who would dare to ask him,‘ What are you doing?’God doesn’t hold back his anger. Even the helpers of the sea monster Rahab bowed in fear at his feet.

The Lord who rules over all has made a promise. He has said,“ You can be sure that what I have planned will happen. What I have decided will take place.I will crush the Assyrians in my land. On my mountains I will walk all over them. The yokes they put on my people will be removed. The heavy load they put on their shoulders will be taken away.”That’s how the Lord carries out his plan all over the world. That’s how he reaches out his powerful hand to punish all the nations.The Lord who rules over all has planned it. Who can stop him? He has reached out his powerful hand. Who can keep him from using it?

Before something even happens, I announce how it will end. In fact, from times long ago I announced what was still to come. I say,‘ My plan will succeed. I will do anything I want to do.’I will send for a man from the east to carry out my plan. From a land far away, he will come like a bird that kills its food. I will bring about what I have said. I will do what I have planned.

Are we trying to make the Lord jealous? Are we stronger than he is?

So Samuel told him everything. He didn’t hide anything from him. Then Eli said,“ He is the Lord. Let him do what he thinks is best.”

“ But he’s the only God. Who can oppose him? He does anything he wants to do.

“ I am the Mighty One. Will the man who argues with me correct me? Let him who brings charges against me answer me!”

His wisdom is deep. His power is great. No one opposes him and comes away unharmed.

No wisdom, wise saying or plan can succeed against the Lord.

But if he remains silent, who can judge him? If he turns his face away, who can see him? He rules over individual people and nations alike.

God gave them the same gift he gave those of us who believed in the Lord Jesus Christ. So who was I to think that I could stand in God’s way?”

God sits on his throne high above the earth. Its people look like grasshoppers to him. He spreads out the heavens like a cover. He sets it up like a tent to live in.He takes the power of princes away from them. He reduces the rulers of this world to nothing.They are planted. They are scattered like seeds. They put down roots in the ground. But as soon as that happens, God blows on them and they dry up. Then a windstorm sweeps them away like straw.

Is your arm as powerful as mine is? Can your voice thunder as mine does?Then put on glory and beauty as if they were your clothes. Also put on honor and majesty.Let loose your great anger. Look at those who are proud and bring them low.Look at proud people and make them humble. Crush evil people right where they are.

From his throne he watches all those who live on the earth.

He doesn’t favor princes. He treats rich people and poor people the same. His hands created all of them.They die suddenly in the middle of the night. God strikes them down, and they pass away. Even people who are mighty are removed, but not by human hands.“ His eyes see how people live. He watches every step they take.There is no deep shadow or total darkness where those who do what is evil can hide.God doesn’t need to bring charges against anyone. He knows they are guilty. So he doesn’t need to have them appear in his court to be judged.He destroys the mighty without asking them questions in court. Then he sets others up in their places.

Hear this, all you nations. Listen, all you who live in this world.

“ But I’m telling you that you aren’t right when you talk like that. After all, God is greater than any human being.Why do you claim that God never answers anybody’s questions?

“ Who are you, Lord?” Saul asked.“ I am Jesus,” he replied.“ I am the one you are opposing.

When the name of Jesus is spoken, everyone will kneel down to worship him. Everyone in heaven and on earth and under the earth will kneel down to worship him.Everyone’s mouth will say that Jesus Christ is Lord. And God the Father will receive the glory.
