Isaiah 54:4-8
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 “Do not be afraid, for you will not be put to shame;(A)
don’t be humiliated, for you will not be disgraced.
For you will forget the shame of your youth,
and you will no longer remember
the disgrace of your widowhood.(B)
5 Indeed, your husband is your Maker(C)—
His name is Yahweh of Hosts—
and the Holy One of Israel(D) is your Redeemer;(E)
He is called the God of all the earth.
6 For the Lord has called you,
like a wife deserted and wounded in spirit,(F)
a wife of one’s youth(G) when she is rejected,”
says your God.
7 “I deserted you for a brief moment,(H)
but I will take you back with great compassion.
8 In a surge of anger
I hid My face(I) from you for a moment,
but I will have compassion on you
with everlasting love,”(J)
says the Lord your Redeemer.
Isaiah 54:4-8
New Living Translation
4 “Fear not; you will no longer live in shame.
Don’t be afraid; there is no more disgrace for you.
You will no longer remember the shame of your youth
and the sorrows of widowhood.
5 For your Creator will be your husband;
the Lord of Heaven’s Armies is his name!
He is your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel,
the God of all the earth.
6 For the Lord has called you back from your grief—
as though you were a young wife abandoned by her husband,”
says your God.
7 “For a brief moment I abandoned you,
but with great compassion I will take you back.
8 In a burst of anger I turned my face away for a little while.
But with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
says the Lord, your Redeemer.
