Bible Verses about 'Isaiah 40 rise on the wings of an eagle'
- The grass withers,
the flower fades;
but the word of our God stands forever. - Haven’t you known?
Haven’t you heard?
The everlasting God, Yahweh,
the Creator of the ends of the earth, doesn’t faint.
He isn’t weary.
His understanding is unsearchable. - He gives power to the weak.
He increases the strength of him who has no might. - But those who wait for Yahweh will renew their strength.
They will mount up with wings like eagles.
They will run, and not be weary.
They will walk, and not faint. - Who has worked and done it,
calling the generations from the beginning?
I, Yahweh, the first, and with the last, I am he. - Don’t you be afraid, for I am with you.

saying to you, ‘Don’t be afraid.
I will help you.’ - When you pass through the waters, I will be with you,

and I have loved you,
therefore I will give people in your place,
and nations instead of your life. - I have blotted out, as a thick cloud, your transgressions,

Who are you, that you are afraid of man who shall die,
and of the son of man who will be made as grass? - How beautiful on the mountains are the feet of him who brings good news,
who publishes peace,
who brings good news,
who proclaims salvation,
who says to Zion, “Your God reigns!” - He was despised
and rejected by men,
a man of suffering
and acquainted with disease.
He was despised as one from whom men hide their face;
and we didn’t respect him. - Surely he has borne our sickness
and carried our suffering;
yet we considered him plagued,
struck by God, and afflicted. - But he was pierced for our transgressions.
He was crushed for our iniquities.

and by his wounds we are healed. - “For the mountains may depart,
and the hills be removed,
but my loving kindness will not depart from you,
and my covenant of peace will not be removed,”
says Yahweh who has mercy on you. - “No weapon that is formed against you will prevail;

and the unrighteous man his thoughts.

to our God, for he will freely pardon. - “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,
and your ways are not my ways,” says Yahweh. - For as the heavens are higher than the earth,
so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts. - So is my word that goes out of my mouth:
it will not return to me void,
but it will accomplish that which I please,
and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do.
