Isaiah 51:6-8
International Standard Version
6 “Lift up your eyes, you[a] heavens
and look to the earth beneath;
and see who created these.[b]
Its inhabitants will die just like this;[c]
but my salvation will be forever,
and my deliverance will never fail.
7 Listen to me, you who know righteousness,
you people who have my instruction[d] in their hearts.
Don’t fear the insults of mortals,
and don’t be dismayed at their hateful words.[e]
8 For moths will eat them up just like a garment,
and worms will devour them like wool;
but my deliverance will last[f] forever,
and my salvation to all generations.
