Isaiah:57:14-21
Seeker Overlay ON
*
And he shall say ,
Raise up !
Raise up !
Clear the way !
Make the stumbling block rise from the way of My people .
*
For so says the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity ,
and His name is Holy :
I dwell in the high and holy place ,
even with the contrite and humble of spirit ;
to make live the spirit of the humble and to make live the heart of the contrite ones .
*
For I will not contend forever ,
nor will I always be angry ,
for the spirit would faint before Me ,
even the breaths I have made .
*
For I was angry and struck him for the iniquity of his gain ;
I hid Myself and was angry ;
yet he went ,
turning in his heart '
s way .
*
His ways I have seen ,
but I will heal him ,
and will lead him and restore comforting to him and to his mourners .
*
I create the fruit of the lips :
peace ,
peace ,
to the ones far off and near ,
says Jehovah ,
and I will heal him .
*
But the wicked are like the driven sea ,
which cannot be quiet ,
and its waves cast up mire and dirt .
*
There is no peace to the wicked ,
says my God .
