Dual Panel1“Hey <01945>, all <03605> who are thirsty <06771>, come <01980> to the water <04325>! You who <0834> have no <0369> money <03701>, come <01980>! Buy <07666> and eat <0398>! Come <01980>! Buy <07666> wine <03196> and milk <02461> without <03808> money <03701> and without <03808> cost <04242>!
2Why <04100> pay <08254> money <03701> for something that will not <03808> nourish <03899> you? Why spend your hard-earned money <03018> on something that will not <03808> satisfy <07654>? Listen <08085> carefully <08085> to <0413> me and eat <0398> what is nourishing <02896>! Enjoy <06026> fine food <01880>!
3Pay attention <0241> and come <01980> to <0413> me! Listen <08085>, so you <05315> can live <02421>! Then I will make <03772> an unconditional <05769> covenantal promise <01285> to you, just like the reliable <0539> covenantal promises <02617> I made to David <01732>.
4Look <02005>, I made <05414> him a witness <05707> to nations <03816>, a ruler <05057> and commander <06680> of nations <03816>.”
5Look <02005>, you will summon <07121> nations <01471> you did not <03808> previously know <03045>; nations <01471> that did not <03808> previously know <03045> you will run <07323> to <0413> you, because of <04616> the Lord <03068> your God <0430>, the Holy One <06918> of Israel <03478>, for <03588> he bestows honor <06286> on you.
6Seek <01875> the Lord <03068> while he makes <04672> himself available <04672>; call <07121> to him while he is <01961> nearby <07138>!
7The wicked <07563> need to abandon <05800> their lifestyle <01870> and sinful <0205> people <0376> their plans <04284>. They should return <07725> to <0413> the Lord <03069>, and he will show mercy <07355> to <0413> them, and to their God <0430>, for <03588> he will freely <07235> forgive <05545> them.
8“Indeed <03588>, my plans <04284> are not <03808> like your plans <04284>, and my deeds <01870> are not <03808> like your deeds <01870>,
9for <03588> just as <03588> the sky <08064> is higher <01361> than the earth <0776>, so <03651> my deeds <01870> are superior <01361> to your deeds <01870> and my plans <04284> superior to your plans <04284>.
10The rain <01653> and snow <07950> fall <03381> from <04480> the sky <08064> and do not <03808> return <07725>, but instead <0518> <03588> water <07301> the earth <0776> and make <03205> it produce <03205> and yield <06779> crops, and provide <05414> seed <02233> for the planter <02232> and food <03899> for those who must eat <0398>.
11In the same way <03651>, the promise <01697> that <0834> I make <03318> does not <03808> return <07725> to <0413> me, having accomplished <06213> nothing <07387>. No <0518>, it is realized as <0834> I desire <02654> and is fulfilled <06743> as <0834> I intend <07971>.”
12Indeed <03588> you will go out <03318> with joy <08057>; you will be led <02986> along in peace <07965>; the mountains <02022> and hills <01389> will give <06476> a joyful shout <07440> before <06440> you, and all <03605> the trees <06086> in the field <07704> will clap <04222> their hands <03709>.
13Evergreens <01265> will grow <05927> in place of <08478> thorn bushes <05285>, firs <01918> will grow <05927> in place of <08478> nettles <05636>; they will be <01961> a monument <08034> to the Lord <03068>, a permanent <05769> reminder <0226> that will remain <03772> <03808>.
