| Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near. | Seek the Lord while He may be found; Call upon Him while He is near. |
| Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the Lord, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon. | Let the wicked abandon his way, And the unrighteous person his thoughts; And let him return to the Lord, And He will have compassion on him, And to our God, For He will abundantly pardon. |

| For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the Lord. | “For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Nor are your ways My ways,” declares the Lord. |
| For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts. | For as the heavens are higher than the earth, So are My ways higher than your ways And My thoughts than your thoughts. |
| So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it. | So will My word be which goes out of My mouth; It will not return to Me empty, Without accomplishing what I desire, And without succeeding in the purpose for which I sent it. |
