# Chapter 55
|
|
1. "Ho! Everyone who thirsts,
|
|
Come to the waters;
|
|
And you who have no money,
|
|
Come, buy and eat.
|
|
Yes, come, buy wine and milk
|
|
Without money and without price.
|
|
|
|
2. Why do you spend money for what is not bread,
|
|
And your wages for what does not satisfy?
|
|
Listen carefully to Me, and eat what is good,
|
|
And let your soul delight itself in abundance.
|
|
|
|
3. Incline your ear, and come to Me.
|
|
Hear, and your soul shall live;
|
|
And I will make an everlasting covenant with you--
|
|
The sure mercies of David.
|
|
|
|
4. Indeed I have given him as a witness to the people,
|
|
A leader and commander for the people.
|
|
|
|
5. Surely you shall call a nation you do not know,
|
|
And nations who do not know you shall run to you,
|
|
Because of the Lord your God,
|
|
And the Holy One of Israel;
|
|
For He has glorified you."
|
|
|
|
6. Seek the Lord while He may be found,
|
|
Call upon Him while He is near.
|
|
|
|
7. Let the wicked forsake his way,
|
|
And the unrighteous man his thoughts;
|
|
Let him return to the Lord,
|
|
And He will have mercy on him;
|
|
And to our God,
|
|
For He will abundantly pardon.
|
|
|
|
8. "For My thoughts are not your thoughts,
|
|
Nor are your ways My ways," says the Lord.
|
|
|
|
9. "For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
|
|
So are My ways higher than your ways,
|
|
And My thoughts than your thoughts.
|
|
|
|
10. "For as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
|
|
And do not return there,
|
|
But water the earth,
|
|
And make it bring forth and bud,
|
|
That it may give seed to the sower
|
|
And bread to the eater,
|
|
|
|
11. So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
|
|
It shall not return to Me void,
|
|
But it shall accomplish what I please,
|
|
And it shall prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
|
|
|
|
12. "For you shall go out with joy,
|
|
And be led out with peace;
|
|
The mountains and the hills
|
|
Shall break forth into singing before you,
|
|
And all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
|
|
|
|
13. Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress tree,
|
|
And instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree;
|
|
And it shall be to the Lord for a name,
|
|
For an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off."
