Isaiah 57:17-19
EasyEnglish Bible
17 I was angry with them because they were greedy,
which was a sin.
So I punished them.
I was angry and I turned away from them.
But they still refused to obey me.
They continued to do what they wanted to do.
18 I have seen what they are doing.
But I will make them well again.
I will be a guide for them,
and I will comfort them again.
Then people who are sad and they are weeping
19 will sing songs to praise me!
I will give them a reason to do that.
I will bring peace to all my people,
those who are far away,
and those who are near.
Yes, I will make them completely well again.’
That is what the Lord says.
Isaiah 57:17-19

17 I was enraged by their sinful greed;(A)
I punished them, and hid(B) my face in anger,
yet they kept on in their willful ways.(C)
18 I have seen their ways, but I will heal(D) them;
I will guide(E) them and restore comfort(F) to Israel’s mourners,
19 creating praise on their lips.(G)
Peace, peace,(H) to those far and near,”(I)
says the Lord. “And I will heal them.”
