Book of Isaiah, Chapter 55
Chapter 55 of Isaiah
come to the waters;
and he who has no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Hearken diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in fatness.
hear, that your soul may live;
and I will make with you an everlasting covenant,
my steadfast, sure love for David.
a leader and commander for the peoples.
and nations that knew you not shall run to you,
because of the LORD your God, and of the Holy One of Israel,
for he has glorified you.
call upon him while he is near;
and the unrighteous man his thoughts;
let him return to the LORD, that he may have mercy on him,
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
neither are your ways my ways, says the LORD.
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
and return not thither but water the earth,
making it bring forth and sprout,
giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
it shall not return to me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and prosper in the thing for which I sent it.
and be led forth in peace;
the mountains and the hills before you
shall break forth into singing,
and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle;
and it shall be to the LORD for a memorial,
for an everlasting sign which shall not be cut off.”Read Isaiah Chapter 55 in other Bible versions:
