Young's Literal Translation
Isaiah 55:9-11
Young's Literal Translation
9 For high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts.
10 For, as come down doth the shower, And the snow from the heavens, And thither returneth not, But hath watered the earth, And hath caused it to yield, and to spring up, And hath given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,
11 So is My word that goeth out of My mouth, It turneth not back unto Me empty, But hath done that which I desired, And prosperously effected that [for] which I sent it.

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.
