Isaiah 54:6-8

Easy-to-Read Version

⁶ “Like a woman whose husband has left her,
    you were very sad.
    You were like a young wife left all alone.
But the Lord has called you back to him.”
    This is what your God says.
⁷ “For a short time I turned away from you,
    but with all my love I will welcome you again.
⁸ I was so angry that for a while I did not want to see you.
    But now I want to comfort you with kindness forever.”
    The Lord your Savior said this.
