| For thus saith the Lord unto the house of Israel, Seek ye me, and ye shall live. | For this is what the Lord says to the house of Israel: “Seek Me so that you may live.” |
| Seek good, and not evil, that ye may live: and so the Lord, the God of hosts, shall be with you, as ye have spoken. | Seek good and not evil, so that you may live; And so may the Lord God of armies be with you, Just as you have said! |
|
| But let judgment run down as waters, and righteousness as a mighty stream. | But let justice roll out like waters, And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. |
