Isaiah 55:10-11

New King James Version

¹⁰“For ^(A)as the rain comes down, and the snow from heaven,
And do not return there,
But water the earth,
And make it bring forth and bud,
That it may give seed to the sower
And bread to the eater,
¹¹^(B)So shall My word be that goes forth from My mouth;
It shall not return to Me ^[a]void,
But it shall accomplish what I please,
And it shall ^(C)prosper in the thing for which I sent it.

Isaiah 55:11 empty, without fruit

Isaiah 55:10-11

New Living Translation

¹⁰“The rain and snow come down from the heavens
    and stay on the ground to water the earth.
They cause the grain to grow,
    producing seed for the farmer
    and bread for the hungry.
¹¹It is the same with my word.
    I send it out, and it always produces fruit.
It will accomplish all I want it to,
    and it will prosper everywhere I send it.

New American Standard Bible

¹⁰For as the ^(A)rain and the snow come down from heaven,
And do not return there without watering the earth
And making it produce and sprout,
And providing ^(B)seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
¹¹So will My ^(C)word be which goes out of My mouth;
It will ^(D)not return to Me empty,
Without ^(E)accomplishing what I desire,
And without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it.
