Isaiah 55:1-3
EasyEnglish Bible
Come to the Lord!
55 ‘Listen! All of you who are thirsty,
come here for water to drink!
You may have no money,
but come here and buy food to eat!
Come and buy wine and milk!
You do not need to pay any money. It is free![a]
2 Do not spend money on anything that is not real food.
You work hard for your money,
so do not spend it on things which do not help you.
Listen carefully to me.
Eat something that will make you strong!
Enjoy the best food!
3 Come to me and listen carefully.
If you accept my teaching,
you will have real life!
Then I will make a covenant with you,
to be my people.
My promise will continue for ever,
like the promise that I made to King David.
Footnotes
- 55:1 God is speaking to his people who are far away from him. They are slaves in exile, so they have no money to buy things with. God will give his blessings to them. He offers them all that they need for life. They do not have to pay anything as they would usually have to do.
