| For this is what the Lord says to the house of Israel: “Seek Me so that you may live.” | This is what the Lord says to Israel: “Seek me and live.” |
| 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! | Seek good, not evil, that you may live. Then the Lord God Almighty will be with you, just as you say he is. |
|
| But let justice roll out like waters, And righteousness like an ever-flowing stream. | But let justice roll on like a river, righteousness like a never-failing stream! |
