Isaiah 55:6-9

New Century Version

⁶ So you should look for the Lord before it is too late;
    you should call to him while he is near.
⁷ The wicked should stop doing wrong,
    and they should stop their evil thoughts.
They should return to the Lord so he may have mercy on them.
    They should come to our God, because he will freely forgive them.

⁸ The Lord says, “My thoughts are not like your thoughts.
    Your ways are not like my ways.
⁹ Just as the heavens are higher than the earth,
    so are my ways higher than your ways
    and my thoughts higher than your thoughts.
