Isaiah 55:6-9
New Living Translation
6 Seek the Lord while you can find him.
Call on him now while he is near.
7 Let the wicked change their ways
and banish the very thought of doing wrong.
Let them turn to the Lord that he may have mercy on them.
Yes, turn to our God, for he will forgive generously.
8 “My thoughts are nothing like your thoughts,” says the Lord.
“And my ways are far beyond anything you could imagine.
9 For just as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so my ways are higher than your ways
and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.
Isaiah 55:6-9

And the unrighteous person his (D)thoughts;
And let him (E)return to the Lord,
And He will have (F)compassion on him,
And to our God,
For He will (G)abundantly pardon.
8 “For My thoughts are not (H)your thoughts,
Nor are (I)your ways My ways,” declares the Lord.
9 “For (J)as the heavens are higher than the earth,
So are My ways higher than your ways
And My thoughts than your thoughts.
