Isaiah 54:7-9

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁷For a brief moment I abandoned you,
    but with great compassion I will gather you.
⁸In overflowing wrath for a moment
    I hid my face from you,
but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,
    says the Lord, your Redeemer.

⁹This is like the days of Noah to me:
    Just as I swore that the waters of Noah
    would never again go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you
    and will not rebuke you.
