Bible Verses about 'Isaiah 42'

nations in exchange for your life. - I have swept away your offenses like a cloud,
your sins like the morning mist.

for I have redeemed you. - Woe to those who quarrel with their Maker,

and bore our suffering,

and from doing as you please on my holy day,
if you call the Sabbath a delight
and the Lord’s holy day honorable,
and if you honor it by not going your own way
and not doing as you please or speaking idle words,
then you will find your joy in the Lord,
and I will cause you to ride in triumph on the heights of the land
and to feast on the inheritance of your father Jacob.”

I said, ‘Here am I, here am I.’

Take your evil deeds out of my sight;
stop doing wrong.Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind. Then you will be able to test and approve what God’s will is—his good, pleasing and perfect will. And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.Next verse!With image
