Isaiah 55:3-5
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 Pay attention and come to me;
listen, that you may have life.
I will make with you an everlasting covenant,
the steadfast loyalty promised to David.(A)
4 As I made him a witness to peoples,
a leader and commander of peoples,
5 So shall you summon a nation you knew not,
and a nation[a] that knew you not shall run to you,
Because of the Lord, your God,
the Holy One of Israel, who has glorified you.(B)
