Isaiah 55:9-11
Holman Christian Standard Bible
9 “For as heaven is higher than earth,(A)
so My ways are higher than your ways,
and My thoughts than your thoughts.
10 For just as rain and snow fall from heaven
and do not return there
without saturating the earth
and making it germinate and sprout,
and providing seed to sow
and food to eat,(B)
11 so My word that comes from My mouth
will not return to Me empty,
but it will accomplish what I please
and will prosper in what I send it to do.”(C)
Isaiah 55:9-11
New International Version
9 “As the heavens are higher than the earth,(A)
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.(B)
10 As the rain(C) and the snow
come down from heaven,
and do not return to it
without watering the earth
and making it bud and flourish,(D)
so that it yields seed(E) for the sower and bread for the eater,(F)
11 so is my word(G) that goes out from my mouth:
It will not return to me empty,(H)
but will accomplish what I desire
and achieve the purpose(I) for which I sent it.
