55
Isaiah 55
An Invitation to Abundant Life
1 # Isa 41.17; Mt 13.44; Jn 4.14; 7.37; Rev 3.18 Hear, everyone who thirsts;
come to the waters;
and you who have no money,
come, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
2 # Isa 25.6; 62.8, 9; Hos 8.7 Why do you spend your money for that which is not bread
and your earnings for that which does not satisfy?
Listen carefully to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.
3 # Isa 51.4; 61.8; Acts 13.34; Rom 10.5 Incline your ear, and come to me;
listen, so that you may live.
I will make with you an everlasting covenant,
my steadfast, sure love for David.
4 # Jer 30.9; Ezek 34.23, 24; Dan 9.25 See, I made him a witness to the peoples,
a leader and commander for the peoples.
5 # Isa 49.6, 12, 23; 60.9; Zech 8.22 Now you shall call nations that you do not know,
and nations that do not know you shall run to you,
because of the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel,
for he has glorified you.
6 # Ps 32.6; Isa 49.8; 2 Cor 6.1, 2 Seek the Lord while he may be found;
call upon him while he is near;
7 # Isa 1.16; 31.6; 44.22; 54.8, 10; 59.7 let the wicked forsake their way
and the unrighteous their thoughts;
let them return to the Lord, that he may have mercy on them,
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
8For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
nor are your ways my ways, says the Lord.
9 # Ps 103.11 For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways
and my thoughts than your thoughts.
10 # Isa 30.23; 2 Cor 9.10 For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven
and do not return there until they have watered the earth,
making it bring forth and sprout,
giving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11 # Isa 45.23; 46.10; 59.21 so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth;
it shall not return to me empty,
but it shall accomplish that which I purpose
and succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
12 # 1 Chr 16.33; Isa 44.23; 51.11; 54.10, 13 For you shall go out in joy
and be led back in peace;
the mountains and the hills before you
shall burst into song,
and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
13 # Isa 19.20; 32.13; 41.19; 63.12, 14 Instead of the thorn shall come up the cypress;
instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle,
and it shall be to the Lord for a memorial,
for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
