Isaiah 54

for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife,” says Yahweh.

don’t spare: lengthen your cords, and strengthen your stakes.

and settle in desolate cities.

You will remember the reproach of your widowhood no more.

He will be called the God of the whole earth.

even a wife of youth, when she is cast off,” says your God.

but I will gather you with great mercies.

but with everlasting loving kindness I will have mercy on you,” says Yahweh your Redeemer.

so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you, nor rebuke you.

says Yahweh who has mercy on you.

and lay your foundations with sapphires.

and all your walls of precious stones.

and your children’s peace will be great.

for it shall not come near you.

Whoever gathers together against you will fall because of you.

and I have created the destroyer to destroy.

and their righteousness is of me,” says Yahweh.
