Isaiah 57:14-16

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

¹⁴ It shall be said,
“Build up, build up, prepare the way;
    remove every obstruction from my people’s way.”^(A)
15 For thus says the high and lofty one
    who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
I dwell in the high and holy place
    and also with those who are contrite and humble in spirit,
to revive the spirit of the humble
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.^(B)
16 For I will not continually accuse,
    nor will I always be angry,
for then the spirits would grow faint before me,
    even the souls that I have made.^(C)
