Isaiah 44:21-23
New Living Translation
Restoration for Jerusalem
21 “Pay attention, O Jacob,
for you are my servant, O Israel.
I, the Lord, made you,
and I will not forget you.
22 I have swept away your sins like a cloud.
I have scattered your offenses like the morning mist.
Oh, return to me,
for I have paid the price to set you free.”
23 Sing, O heavens, for the Lord has done this wondrous thing.
Shout for joy, O depths of the earth!
Break into song,
O mountains and forests and every tree!
For the Lord has redeemed Jacob
and is glorified in Israel.
Isaiah 44:21-23
New American Standard Bible
God Forgives and Redeems
21 “(A)Remember these things, Jacob,
And Israel, for you are (B)My servant;
I have formed you, you are My servant,
Israel, you will (C)not be forgotten by Me.
22 I have (D)wiped out your wrongdoings like a thick cloud
And your sins like a [a]heavy mist.
(E)Return to Me, for I have (F)redeemed you.”
23 (G)Shout for joy, you heavens, for the Lord has done it!
Shout joyfully, you lower parts of the earth;
(H)Break into a shout of jubilation, you mountains,
Forest, and every tree in it;
For (I)the Lord has redeemed Jacob,
And in Israel He (J)shows His glory.
