Isaiah 57:12-14
1599 Geneva Bible
12 I will declare thy righteousness [a]and thy works, and they shall not profit thee.
13 When thou cryest, let them that thou hast gathered together, deliver thee: but the wind [b]shall take them all away: vanity shall pull them away: but he that trusteth in me shall inherit the land, and shall possess mine holy Mountain.
14 [c]And he shall say, Cast up, cast up: prepare the way: take up the stumbling blocks out of the way of my people.
