Isaiah 57:14-16

International Standard Version

¹⁴And one has said:^[a]
‘Build up! Build up the road!^[b]
Prepare the highway!
Remove every obstacle from my people’s way.’

¹⁵“For this is what the high and lofty One says,
    who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
“He lives^[c] in the height and in holiness,^[d]
    and also with the one who is of a contrite and humble spirit,
to revive the spirit of the humble,
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.
¹⁶For I won’t accuse forever,
    nor will I always be angry;
for then the human spirit would grow faint before me—
    even the souls that I have created.
