Isaiah 44:27 CPDV

²⁵  I make the signs of the diviners useless, and I turn the seers to madness. I turn the wise backwards, and make their knowledge into foolishness.

²⁶  I lift up the word of my servant, and I fulfill the counsel of my messengers. I say to Jerusalem, 'You shall be inhabited,' and to the cities of Judah, 'You shall be rebuilt,' and I will lift up its deserts.

²⁷  I say to the depths, 'Be desolate,' and, 'I will dry up your rivers.'

²⁸  I say to Cyrus, 'You are my shepherd, and you will accomplish all that I will.' I say to Jerusalem, 'You shall be built,' and to the Temple, 'Your foundations shall be laid.'
