Isaiah:57:14-21

*
And shall say ,
Cast ye up ,
cast ye up ,
prepare the way ,
take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people .
*
For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity ,
whose name is Holy ;
I dwell in the high and holy place ,
with him also 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 should 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 frowardly in the way of his heart .
*
I have seen his ways ,
and will heal him :
I will lead him also ,
and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners .
*
I create the fruit of the lips ;
Peace ,
peace to him that is far off ,
and to him that is near ,
saith the LORD ;
and I will heal him .
*
But the wicked are like the troubled sea ,
when it cannot rest ,
whose waters cast up mire and dirt .
*
There is no peace ,
saith my God ,
to the wicked .
