Isaiah 54:4-8
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

4 Do not fear, for you will not be ashamed;
    do not be discouraged, for you will not suffer disgrace,
for you will forget the shame of your youth,
    and the disgrace of your widowhood you will remember no more.(A)
5 For your Maker is your husband;
    the Lord of hosts is his name;
the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer;
    the God of the whole earth he is called.(B)
6 For the Lord has called you
    like a wife forsaken and grieved in spirit,
like the wife of a man’s youth when she is cast off,
    says your God.(C)
7 For a brief moment I abandoned you,
    but with great compassion I will gather you.(D)
8 In overflowing wrath for a moment
    I hid my face from you,
but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,
    says the Lord, your Redeemer.(E)

Isaiah 54:4-8
Lexham English Bible

4 You must not fear, for you will not be ashamed,
    and you must not be confounded, for you will not feel abashed,
for you will forget the shame of your youth,
    and you will no longer remember the disgrace of your widowhood.
5 For your husband[a] is your maker,[b] his name is Yahweh of hosts;
    and your redeemer is the holy one of Israel, he is called the God of all of the earth.
6 For Yahweh has called you like a wife forsaken and hurt of spirit,
    like[c] the wife of childhood when she is rejected, says your God.
7 I abandoned you for a short[d] moment,
    but[e] I will gather you with great compassion.
8 I hid my face from you for a moment, in the flowing of anger,
    but[f] I will have compassion on you with everlasting faithfulness” says your redeemer, Yahweh.
