God Gives What Is Good

55 The Lord says, “All you who are thirsty,
    come ·and drink [L to the waters; John 7:37].
Those of you who do not have money,
    come, buy and eat [Prov. 9:5]!
Come buy wine and milk
    without money and without cost.
Why spend your money on something that is not ·real food [bread]?
    Why work for something that doesn’t really satisfy you?
Listen closely to me, and you will eat what is good;
    your soul will ·enjoy [delight in] the ·rich food that satisfies [L fat].
Come to me and ·listen [extend your ear];
    listen to me so you may live.
I will make an ·agreement with you that will last forever [everlasting covenant/treaty with you].
    I will give you the ·blessings [covenant love; loyalty; lovingkindness; T sure mercies] I promised to David [2 Sam. 7:11–14; Ps. 89:33–35; Acts 13:34].
