For your Maker is your husband,

the Lord of hosts is his name;

and the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer,

the God of the whole earth he is called.

For the Lord has called you

like a wife deserted and grieved in spirit,

like a wife of youth when she is cast off,

says your God.

For a brief moment I deserted you,

but with great compassion I will gather you.

In overflowing anger for a moment

I hid my face from you,

but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”

says the Lord, your Redeemer.

NIVNew International Version (2011)

For your Maker is your husband—

the Lord Almighty is his name—

the Holy One of Israel is your Redeemer;

The Lord will call you back

as if you were a wife deserted and distressed in spirit—

a wife who married young,

only to be rejected,” says your God.

“For a brief moment I abandoned you,

but with deep compassion I will bring you back.

In a surge of anger

I hid my face from you for a moment,

but with everlasting kindness

I will have compassion on you,”

says the Lord your Redeemer.

For the Lord has called you,

like a wife deserted and wounded in spirit,

a wife of one’s youth when she is rejected,”

says your God.

“I deserted you for a brief moment,

but I will take you back with abundant compassion.

In a surge of anger

I hid my face from you for a moment,

but I will have compassion on you

with everlasting love,”

says the Lord your Redeemer.

NLTNew Living Translation

For the Lord has called you back from your grief—

as though you were a young wife abandoned by her husband,”

says your God.

“For a brief moment I abandoned you,

but with great compassion I will take you back.

In a burst of anger I turned my face away for a little while.

But with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”

says the Lord, your Redeemer.

For your husband is your maker, his name is Yahweh of hosts;

and your redeemer is the holy one of Israel, he is called the God of all of the earth.

For Yahweh has called you like a wife forsaken and hurt of spirit,

like the wife of childhood when she is rejected, says your God.

I abandoned you for a short moment,

but I will gather you with great compassion.

I hid my face from you for a moment, in the flowing of anger,

but I will have compassion on you with everlasting faithfulness” says your redeemer, Yahweh.

KJV 1900King James Version

For thy Maker is thine husband;

The Lord of hosts is his name;

And thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel;

The God of the whole earth shall he be called.

For the Lord hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit,

And a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.

For a small moment have I forsaken thee;

But with great mercies will I gather thee.

In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment;

But with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee,

Saith the Lord thy Redeemer.
