   15 Surely the nations are like a drop in a bucket;

   they are regarded as dust on the scales;

   he weighs the islands as though they were fine dust.

   17 Before him all the nations are as nothing;

   they are regarded by him as worthless

   and less than nothing.

2. ESV English Standard Version

   15 Behold, the nations are like a drop from a bucket,

   and are accounted *ch. 29:5as the dust on the scales;

   behold, he takes up *ch. 41:1the coastlands like fine dust.

   17 *Ps. 62:9;Dan. 4:35;[ch. 41:12]All the nations are as nothing before him,

   they are accounted by him as less than nothing and emptiness.

3. NLT New Living Translation

   15 No, for all the nations of the world

   are but a drop in the bucket.

   They are nothing more

   than dust on the scales.

   He picks up the whole earth

   as though it were a grain of sand.

   17 The nations of the world are worth nothing to him.

   In his eyes they count for less than nothing—

   mere emptiness and froth.

4. NKJV Nova Versão King James

   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.

   17 All nations before Him are as *Dan. 4:35nothing,

   And *Ps. 62:9they are counted by Him less than nothing and worthless.

7. DRA Douay-Rheims American 1899

   15 Behold the Gentiles are as a drop of a bucket, and are counted as the smallest grain of a balance: behold the islands are as a little dust. 17 All nations are before him as if they had no being at all, and are counted to him as nothing, and vanity.

8. MSG The Message

   12-17 Who has scooped up the ocean

   in his two hands,

   or measured the sky between his thumb and little finger,

   Who has put all the earth’s dirt in one of his baskets,

   weighed each mountain and hill?

   Who could ever have told God what to do

   or taught him his business?

   What expert would he have gone to for advice,

   what school would he attend to learn justice?

   What god do you suppose might have taught him what he knows,

   showed him how things work?

   Why, the nations are but a drop in a bucket,

   a mere smudge on a window.

   Watch him sweep up the islands

   like so much dust off the floor!

   There aren’t enough trees in Lebanon

   nor enough animals in those vast forests

   to furnish adequate fuel and offerings for his worship.

   All the nations add up to simply nothing before him—

   less than nothing is more like it. A minus.
