Living Bible
Isaiah 57:13-15
Living Bible
13 Let’s see if the whole collection of your idols can help you when you cry to them to save you! They are so weak that the wind can carry them off! A breath can puff them away. But he who trusts in me shall possess the land and inherit my holy mountain. 14 I will say, Rebuild the road! Clear away the rocks and stones. Prepare a glorious highway for my people’s return from captivity.
15 The high and lofty One who inhabits eternity, the Holy One, says this: I live in that high and holy place where those with contrite, humble spirits dwell; and I refresh the humble and give new courage to those with repentant hearts.

New International Version
Isaiah 57:13-15
New International Version
13 When you cry out(A) for help,
let your collection of idols save(B) you!
The wind will carry all of them off,
a mere breath will blow(C) them away.
But whoever takes refuge(D) in me
will inherit the land(E)
and possess my holy mountain.”(F)
Comfort for the Contrite
14 And it will be said:
“Build up, build up, prepare the road!(G)
Remove the obstacles out of the way of my people.”(H)
15 For this is what the high and exalted(I) One says—
he who lives forever,(J) whose name is holy:
“I live in a high(K) and holy place,
but also with the one who is contrite(L) and lowly in spirit,(M)
to revive the spirit of the lowly
and to revive the heart of the contrite.(N)
