“Listen to me, my people;
    and hear me, my nation,
for a law will go out from me,
    and I will establish my justice for a light to the peoples.
My righteousness is near.
    My salvation has gone out,
    and my arms will judge the peoples.
The islands will wait for me,
    and they will trust my arm.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
    and look at the earth beneath;
for the heavens will vanish away like smoke,
    and the earth will wear out like a garment.
Its inhabitants will die in the same way,
    but my salvation will be forever,
    and my righteousness will not be abolished.
