Isaiah 57:13-15
International Standard Version
13 When you cry out, let your collection deliver you!
The wind will carry them all off,
and[a] a mere breath will sweep them all away.”
God’s Reward for the Faithful
“But whoever[b] takes refuge in me will possess the land,
and will inherit my holy mountain.
14 And one has said:[c]
‘Build up! Build up the road![d]
Prepare the highway!
Remove every obstacle from my people’s way.’
15 “For this is what the high and lofty One says,
who inhabits eternity, whose name is Holy:
“He lives[e] in the height and in holiness,[f]
and also with the one who is of a contrite and humble spirit,
to revive the spirit of the humble,
and to revive the heart of the contrite.
