Isaiah 54:7-9

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁷ “I abandoned you for one brief moment,
but I will bring you back with unlimited compassion.
⁸ I hid my face from you for a moment in a burst of anger,
but I will have compassion on you with everlasting kindness,”
says the Lord your defender.
⁹ “To me this is like Noah’s floodwaters, when I swore an oath
that Noah’s floodwaters would never cover the earth again.
So now I swear an oath not to be angry with you or punish you.
