41:2 Who stirs up this one from the east? 1
Who 2 officially commissions him for service? 3
He hands nations over to him, 4
and enables him to subdue 5 kings.
He makes them like dust with his sword,
like windblown straw with his bow. 6
41:5 The coastlands 7 see and are afraid;
the whole earth 8 trembles;
they approach and come.
