Isaiah 54:4-8

Common English Bible

⁴ Don’t fear,
    because you won’t be ashamed;
    don’t be dismayed,
    because you won’t be disgraced.
You will forget the shame of your youth;
    you’ll no longer remember the disgrace of your widowhood.
⁵ The one marrying you is the one who made you—
    the Lord of heavenly forces is his name.
The one redeeming you is the holy one of Israel,
    the one called the God of all the earth.
⁶ As an abandoned and dejected woman the Lord has summoned you;
    as a young wife when she is rejected,
        says your God.
⁷ For a brief moment I abandoned you,
    but with great mercy I will bring you back.
⁸     In an outburst of rage,
    I hid my face from you for a moment,
    but with everlasting love I have consoled you,
    says your redeemer, the Lord.
