Isaiah 54:5

Isaiah 54:5

3 For you shall expand to the right and to the left,
And your descendants will ^ainherit the nations,
And make the desolate cities inhabited.

4 “Do^a not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
Neither be disgraced, for you will not be put to shame;
For you will forget the shame of your youth,
And will not remember the reproach of your widowhood anymore.

5 ^aFor your Maker is your husband,
The Lord of hosts is His name;
And your Redeemer is the Holy One of Israel;
He is called ^bthe God of the whole earth.

6 For the Lord ^ahas called you
Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
Like a youthful wife when you were refused,”
Says your God.

7 “For^a a mere moment I have forsaken you,
But with great mercies ^bI will gather you.

8 With a little wrath I hid My face from you for a moment;
^aBut with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
Says the Lord, your Redeemer.
