25 "To whom will you compare me? Or who is my equal?" says the
Holy One. 26 Lift your eyes and look to the heavens: Who created all
these? He who brings out the starry host one by one, and calls them
each by name. Because of his great power and mighty strength, not
one of them is missing. 27 Why do you say, O Jacob, and complain, O
Israel, "My way is hidden from the LORD; my cause is disregarded by
my God"? 28 Do you not know? Have you not heard? The LORD is
the everlasting God, the Creator of the ends of the earth. He will not
grow tired or weary, and his understanding no one can fathom. 29 He
gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak. 30
Even youths grow tired and weary, and young men stumble and fall;
31 but those who hope in the LORD will renew their strength. They
will soar on wings like eagles; they will run and not grow weary, they
will walk and not be faint. —Isaiah 40:25-31(NIV)
