Isaiah 55:8-11

New King James Version

⁸“For^(A) My thoughts are not your thoughts,
Nor are your ways My ways,” says the Lord.
⁹“For^(B) as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways,
And My thoughts than your thoughts.

¹⁰“For ^(C)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^(D)So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me ^[a]void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall ^(E)prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
