Isaiah 48:17-19

Modern English Version

¹⁷ Thus says the Lord,
    your Redeemer, the Holy One of Israel:
I am the Lord your God,
    who teaches you to profit,
    who leads you in the way you should go.
¹⁸ Oh, that you had listened to My commandments!
    Then your peace would have been as a river
    and your righteousness as the waves of the sea.
¹⁹ Your descendants also would have been as the sand
    and your offspring like grains of sand;
their name would not have been cut off
    nor destroyed from before Me.
