Isaiah 57:17-19
Easy-to-Read Version
17 Israel’s evil greed made me angry,
so I punished them.
I turned away from them
because I was angry.
But they continued to do wrong.
They did whatever they wanted.
18 I have seen their way of life, but I will heal them.
I will guide and comfort them and those who mourn for them.
19 I will teach them a new word: peace.
I will give peace to those who are near and to those who are far away.
I will heal them.”
The Lord himself said this.
Isaiah 57:17-19

I punished them, and hid(B) my face in anger,
yet they kept on in their willful ways.(C)

I will guide(E) them and restore comfort(F) to Israel’s mourners,
19 creating praise on their lips.(G)
Peace, peace,(H) to those far and near,”(I)
says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”
