Isaiah 48:16-18
Living Bible
16 Come closer and listen. I have always told you plainly what would happen, so that you could clearly understand. And now the Lord God and his Spirit have sent me (with this message):
17 The Lord, your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel, says: I am the Lord your God, who punishes you for your own good and leads you along the paths that you should follow.
18 Oh, that you had listened to my laws! Then you would have had peace flowing like a gentle river, and great waves of righteousness.

Isaiah 48:16-18
New International Version
16 “Come near(A) me and listen(B) to this:
“From the first announcement I have not spoken in secret;(C)
at the time it happens, I am there.”
17 This is what the Lord says—
your Redeemer,(G) the Holy One(H) of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
who teaches(I) you what is best for you,
who directs(J) you in the way(K) you should go.
18 If only you had paid attention(L) to my commands,
your peace(M) would have been like a river,(N)
your well-being(O) like the waves of the sea.
