Like a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,
Like a youthful wife when you were refused,”
Says your God.
aBut with everlasting kindness I will have mercy on you,”
Says the Lord, your Redeemer.
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.
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.
Tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
Behold, I will lay your stones with acolorful gems,
And lay your foundations with sapphires.
Your gates of crystal,
And all your walls of precious stones.
| << Isaiah 54:7 | Isaiah 54:9 >> |
