Isaiah 55:1–7

Seek Yahweh While He May Be Found

¹“Ho! Every one who ^athirsts, come to the waters;

And you who have ^bno ¹money come, buy and eat.

Come, buy ^cwine and milk

^dWithout money and without cost.

²“Why do you ¹spend money for what is ^anot bread,

And your wages for what does not satisfy?

Listen carefully to Me, and ^beat what is good,

And ^cdelight your soul in richness.

³“^aIncline your ear and come to Me.

Listen, that your soul may ^blive;

And I will cut ^can everlasting covenant with you,

According to the ^dfaithful lovingkindnesses of David.

⁴“Behold, I have given ^ahim as a witness to the peoples,

A ^bruler and commander for the peoples.

⁵“Behold, you will call a ^anation you do not know,

And a nation which knows you not will ^brun to you,

Because of Yahweh your God, even the Holy One of Israel;

For He has ^cadorned you with beautiful glory.”

^6aSeek Yahweh while He may be found;

^bCall upon Him while He is near.

^7aLet the wicked forsake his way

And the unrighteous man his ^bthoughts;

And let him ^creturn to Yahweh,

And He will have ^dcompassion on him,

And to our God,

For He will ^eabundantly pardon.
