Isaiah 51:5-7

EasyEnglish Bible

⁵ I am ready to do what is right for them.
    I am ready to save them.
I will judge all the nations fairly.
Lands that are far away will wait for me to help them.
    They wait for me to come and rule them all with power.
⁶ Look up at the sky!
    Look down at the earth below!
One day, the sky will disappear
    like smoke that blows away.
The earth will become useless,
    like old clothes.
The people who live on it will die.
    They will fall like flies.
But I will keep my people safe for ever.
    I will always rule with righteousness.
⁷ Listen to me,
    you people who know what is right.
You people who think carefully about my law,
    listen to me.
When people speak against you,
    do not be afraid.
Do not be upset,
    when they insult you.
