Isaiah 48:17-19
The Voice
17 The Eternal One, who rescued you, the Holy One of Israel declares,
Eternal One: I am the Eternal One your God. I have given you My instruction
for living well and right, leading you in how you should be and do.
18 If only you had listened to My instruction,
then you would have been flooded with peace;
Your righteousness would have risen and crested like waves on the sea.
19 Your people would have multiplied to become like the grains of sand,
and your children would be like grains of wheat.
And they would be forever in My mind and My presence.
Isaiah 48:17-19
New International Version
17 This is what the Lord says—
your Redeemer,(A) the Holy One(B) of Israel:
“I am the Lord your God,
who teaches(C) you what is best for you,
who directs(D) you in the way(E) you should go.
18 If only you had paid attention(F) to my commands,
your peace(G) would have been like a river,(H)
your well-being(I) like the waves of the sea.
19 Your descendants(J) would have been like the sand,(K)
your children like its numberless grains;(L)
their name would never be blotted out(M)
nor destroyed from before me.”
