Isaiah 57:15-18
New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
15 For thus says the high and lofty one
who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
I dwell in the high and holy place
and also with those who are contrite and humble in spirit,
to revive the spirit of the humble
and to revive the heart of the contrite.(A)
16 For I will not continually accuse,
nor will I always be angry,
for then the spirits would grow faint before me,
even the souls that I have made.(B)
17 Because of their wicked covetousness I was angry;
I struck them; I hid and was angry,
but they kept turning back to their own ways.(C)
18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal them;
I will lead them and repay them with comfort,
Isaiah 57:15-18
New International Version
15 For this is what the high and exalted(A) One says—
he who lives forever,(B) whose name is holy:
“I live in a high(C) and holy place,
but also with the one who is contrite(D) and lowly in spirit,(E)
to revive the spirit of the lowly
and to revive the heart of the contrite.(F)
16 I will not accuse(G) them forever,
nor will I always be angry,(H)
for then they would faint away because of me—
the very people(I) I have created.
17 I was enraged by their sinful greed;(J)
I punished them, and hid(K) my face in anger,
yet they kept on in their willful ways.(L)
18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal(M) them;
I will guide(N) them and restore comfort(O) to Israel’s mourners,
