* And it shall be said , Cast up , cast up , prepare the way , take up the stumbling-blocks out of the way of my people . * For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity , and whose name is Holy : I dwell in the high and holy [place ], and with him that is of a contrite and humble spirit , to revive the spirit of the humble , and to revive the heart of the contrite ones . * For I will not contend for ever , neither will I be always wroth ; for the spirit would fail before me , and the souls [which ] I have made . * For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth , and smote him ; I hid me , and was wroth , and he went on backslidingly in the way of his heart . * I have seen his ways , and will heal him ; and I will lead him , and will restore comforts unto him and to those of his that mourn . * I create the fruit of the lips : peace , peace to him [that is ] afar off , and to him [that is ] nigh , saith Jehovah ; and I will heal him . * But the wicked are like the troubled sea , which cannot rest , and whose waters cast up mire and dirt . * There is no peace , saith my God , to the wicked .
