New Testament

Isaiah 57:17-21 New English Translation (NET)

17. I was angry because of their sinful greed;I attacked them and angrily rejected them,yet they remained disobedient and stubborn.

18. I have seen their behavior,but I will heal them and give them rest,and I will once again console those who mourn.

19. I am the one who gives them reason to celebrate.Complete prosperity is available both to those who are far away and those who are nearby,”says the Lord, “and I will heal them.

20. But the wicked are like a surging sea that is unable to be quiet;its waves toss up mud and sand.

21. There will be no prosperity,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
