Isaiah 57:16-19
New International Version
16 I will not accuse(A) them forever,
nor will I always be angry,(B)
for then they would faint away because of me—
the very people(C) I have created.
17 I was enraged by their sinful greed;(D)
I punished them, and hid(E) my face in anger,
yet they kept on in their willful ways.(F)
18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal(G) them;
I will guide(H) them and restore comfort(I) to Israel’s mourners,
19 creating praise on their lips.(J)
Peace, peace,(K) to those far and near,”(L)
says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”
Isaiah 57:16-19
King James Version
16 For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.
17 For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.
18 I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.
19 I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the Lord; and I will heal him.
