Isaiah 54:5-10

English Standard Version

⁵^(A)For your Maker is your husband,
    the Lord of hosts is his name;
^(B)and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer,
    ^(C)the God of the whole earth he is called.
⁶^(D)For the Lord has called you
    like a wife deserted and grieved in spirit,
like a wife of youth when she is cast off,
    says your God.
⁷^(E)For a brief moment I deserted you,
    but with great compassion I will gather you.
⁸^(F)In overflowing anger for a moment
    I hid my face from you,
^(G)but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
    says the Lord, your Redeemer.

⁹“This is like ^(H)the days of Noah^[a] to me:
    as I swore that the waters of Noah
    should no more go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you,
    and will not rebuke you.
¹⁰For the mountains may depart
    and the hills be removed,
but my steadfast love shall not depart from you,
    and ^(I)my covenant of peace shall not be removed,”
    says the Lord, who has compassion on you.
