Isaiah 51:1-3

Modern English Version

51 Listen to Me, you who pursue righteousness,
    you who seek the Lord:
Look to the rock from which you were hewn
    and to the quarry from which you were dug.
² Look to Abraham your father
    and to Sarah who bore you;
for I called him alone,
    and blessed him, and multiplied him.
³ For the Lord shall comfort Zion,
    He will comfort all her waste places;
He will make her wilderness like Eden,
    and her desert like the garden of the Lord;
joy and gladness shall be found in it,
    thanksgiving, and the voice of melody.
