Text -- Isaiah 51:1-8 (NET)
Strongs On/Off
Context
There is Hope for the Future
51:1 “Listen to me, you who pursue godliness , who seek the Lord ! Look at the rock from which you were chiseled , at the quarry from which you were dug !
51:2 Look at Abraham , your father , and Sarah , who gave you birth . When I summoned him, he was a lone individual , but I blessed him and gave him numerous descendants.
51:3 Certainly the Lord will console Zion ; he will console all her ruins . He will make her wilderness like Eden , her desert like the Garden of the Lord . Happiness and joy will be restored to her, thanksgiving and the sound of music .
51:4 Pay attention to me, my people ! Listen to me, my people ! For I will issue a decree , I will make my justice a light to the nations .
51:5 I am ready to vindicate , I am ready to deliver , I will establish justice among the nations . The coastlands wait patiently for me; they wait in anticipation for the revelation of my power .
51:6 Look up at the sky ! Look at the earth below ! For the sky will dissipate like smoke , and the earth will wear out like clothes ; its residents will die like gnats. But the deliverance I give is permanent ; the vindication I provide will not disappear .
51:7 Listen to me, you who know what is right , you people who are aware of my law ! Don’t be afraid of the insults of men ; don’t be discouraged because of their abuse !
51:8 For a moth will eat away at them like clothes; a clothes moth will devour them like wool . But the vindication I provide will be permanent ; the deliverance I give will last.”
