Chapter 55
Isai NHEBME 55:1  "Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters! Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat! Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Isai NHEBME 55:2  Why do you spend money for that which is not bread? and your labor for that which doesn't satisfy? Listen diligently to me, and eat you that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Isai NHEBME 55:3  Turn your ear, and come to me; hear, and your soul shall live: and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Isai NHEBME 55:4  Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and commander to the peoples.
Isai NHEBME 55:5  Behold, you shall call a nation that you do not know; and a nation that did not know you shall run to you, because of the Lord your God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he has glorified you."
Isai NHEBME 55:6  Seek the Lord while he may be found; call you on him while he is near:
Isai NHEBME 55:7  let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts; and let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isai NHEBME 55:8  "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways," says the Lord.
Isai NHEBME 55:9  "For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isai NHEBME 55:10  For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and doesn't return there, but waters the earth, and makes it bring forth and bud, and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;
Isai NHEBME 55:11  so shall my word be that goes forth out of my mouth: it shall not return to me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing I sent it to do.
Isai NHEBME 55:12  For you shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields shall clap their hands.
Isai NHEBME 55:13  Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree; and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the Lord for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off."
