Isaiah 51:4–8

4 “Listen attentively to me, my people,

and my nation, listen to me!

For a teaching will go out from me,

and I will cause my justice to rest for a light to the peoples.

5 My righteousness is near; my salvation has gone out,

and my arms will judge the peoples.

The coastlands wait for me,

and for my arm they wait.

6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens

and look to the earth beneath,

for the heavens will be torn to pieces like smoke,

and the earth will be worn out like a garment,

and those who inhabit her will die like gnats.

Bute my salvation will be forever,

and my righteousness will not be broken to pieces.

7 Listen to me, you who know righteousness,

people who have my teaching in their heart;

you must not fear the reproach of men,

or be terrified because of their abuse.

8 For a moth will eat them like garments;

a moth will devourf them like wool,

butg my righteousness will be forever,

and my salvation for ⌊generation after generation⌋.h”
