Isaiah 55:11-13

New American Standard Bible 1995

¹¹ So will My ^(A)word be which goes forth from My mouth;
It will ^(B)not return to Me empty,
Without ^(C)accomplishing what I desire,
And without succeeding in the matter for which I sent it.
¹² “For you will go out with ^(D)joy
And be led forth with ^(E)peace;
The ^(F)mountains and the hills will break forth into shouts of joy before you,
And all the ^(G)trees of the field will clap their hands.
¹³ “Instead of the ^(H)thorn bush the ^(I)cypress will come up,
And instead of the ^(J)nettle the myrtle will come up,
And ^[a]it will be a ^[b](K)memorial to the Lord,
For an everlasting ^(L)sign which ^(M)will not be cut off.”
