English Standard Version
15 For thus says (A)the One who is high and lifted up,
who inhabits eternity, whose name is (B)Holy:
(C)“I dwell in the high and holy place,
and also (D)with him who is of a contrite and lowly spirit,
(E)to revive the spirit of the lowly,
and to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 (F)For I will not contend forever,
nor will I always be angry;
for the spirit would grow faint before me,
and the breath of life that I made.
17 Because of the iniquity of his (G)unjust gain I was angry,
I struck him; I hid my face and was angry,
but he went on backsliding in the way of his own heart.
18 I have seen his ways, (H)but I will heal him;
I will lead him (I)and restore comfort to him and his mourners,
