Isaiah 54:7
Compare all
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 “Fora 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. 
9 “For this is like the waters of aNoah to Me;
For as I have sworn
That the waters of Noah would no longer cover the earth,
So have I sworn
That I would not be angry with byou, nor rebuke you. 
10 For athe mountains shall depart
And the hills be removed,
bBut My kindness shall not depart from you,
Nor shall My covenant of peace be removed,”
Says the Lord, who has mercy on you. 
11 “O you afflicted one,
Tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
Behold, I will lay your stones with acolorful gems,
And lay your foundations with sapphires. 
12 I will make your pinnacles of rubies,
Your gates of crystal,
And all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your children shall be ataught by the Lord,
And bgreat shall be the peace of your children. 
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
You shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
And from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 Indeed they shall surely assemble, but not because of Me.
Whoever assembles against you shall afall for your sake. 
16 “Behold, I have created the blacksmith
Who blows the coals in the fire,
Who brings forth an1 instrument for his work;
And I have created the1 spoiler to destroy. 
17 No weapon formed against you shall aprosper,
And every tongue which rises against you in judgment
You shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
bAnd their righteousness is from Me,”
Says the Lord.

Isaiah 54:7

For a small moment "In a little anger" - So the Chaldee and Syriac, either reading regaz , for rega ; or understanding the latter word as meaning the same with the former, which they both make use of. See Psalms 30:5; Psalms 35:20, in the Septuagint, where they render rega by , anger.
