Isaiah 54:11-55:5
New American Standard Bible
11 “(A)Afflicted one, storm-tossed, and (B)not comforted,
Behold, I will set your stones in antimony,
And I will (C)lay your foundations with [a](D)sapphires.
12 Moreover, I will make your battlements of [b]rubies,
And your gates of [c]crystal,
And your entire [d]wall of precious stones.
13 (E)All your sons will be [e]taught by the Lord;
And the well-being of your sons will be (F)great.
14 In (G)righteousness you will be established;
You will be far from (H)oppression, for you will (I)not fear;
And from (J)terror, for it will not come near you.
15 If anyone fiercely attacks you, it will not be from Me.
(K)Whoever attacks you will fall because of you.
16 Behold, I Myself have created the smith who blows on the fire of coals
And produces a weapon for its work;
And I have created the destroyer to inflict ruin.
17 (L)No weapon that is formed against you will succeed;
And you will condemn (M)every tongue that [f]accuses you in judgment.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
And their (N)vindication is from Me,” declares the Lord.
The Free Offer of Mercy
55 “[g]You there! Everyone who (O)thirsts, come to the waters;
And you who have (P)no [h]money come, buy and eat.
Come, buy (Q)wine and milk
(R)Without money and without cost.
2 Why do you [i]spend money for what is (S)not bread,
And your wages for what does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to Me, and (T)eat what is good,
And (U)delight yourself in abundance.
3 (V)Incline your ear and come to Me.
Listen, that [j]you may (W)live;
And I will make (X)an everlasting covenant with you,
According to the (Y)faithful mercies [k]shown to David.
4 Behold, I have made (Z)him a witness to the peoples,
A (AA)leader and commander for the peoples.
5 Behold, you will call a (AB)nation you do not know,
And a nation which does not know you will (AC)run to you,
Because of the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel;
For He has (AD)glorified you.”

Isaiah 54:11-55:5
New International Version
Isaiah 54:11-55:5
New International Version
11 “Afflicted(A) city, lashed by storms(B) and not comforted,(C)
I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,[a](D)
your foundations(E) with lapis lazuli.(F)
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates(G) of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your children will be taught by the Lord,(H)
and great will be their peace.(I)
14 In righteousness(J) you will be established:(K)
Tyranny(L) will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.(M)
Terror(N) will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender(O) to you.
16 “See, it is I who created the blacksmith(P)
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon(Q) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer(R) to wreak havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail,(S)
and you will refute(T) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants(U) of the Lord,
and this is their vindication(V) from me,”
declares the Lord.
Invitation to the Thirsty
55 “Come, all you who are thirsty,(W)
come to the waters;(X)
and you who have no money,
come, buy(Y) and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk(Z)
without money and without cost.(AA)
2 Why spend money on what is not bread,
and your labor on what does not satisfy?(AB)
Listen, listen to me, and eat what is good,(AC)
and you will delight in the richest(AD) of fare.
3 Give ear and come to me;
listen,(AE) that you may live.(AF)
I will make an everlasting covenant(AG) with you,
my faithful love(AH) promised to David.(AI)
4 See, I have made him a witness(AJ) to the peoples,
a ruler and commander(AK) of the peoples.
5 Surely you will summon nations(AL) you know not,
and nations you do not know will come running to you,(AM)
because of the Lord your God,
the Holy One(AN) of Israel,
for he has endowed you with splendor.”(AO)
