GOD'S COMFORT TO HIS PEOPLE
"Attend unto Me, O My people;
And give ear unto Me, O My nation:
For a law shall go forth from Me,
And I will establish My justice for a light of the peoples.
My righteousness is near,
My salvation is gone forth,
And Mine arms shall judge the peoples;
The isles shall wait for Me,
And on Mine arm shall they trust.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
And look upon the earth beneath;
For the heavens shall vanish away like smoke,
And the earth shall wax old like a garment;
And they that dwell therein shall die in like manner;
But My salvation shall be forever,
And My righteousness shall not be abolished.
Harken unto Me, ye that know righteousness,
The people in whose heart is My law;
Fear ye not the reproach of men,
Neither be ye dismayed at their revilings.
For the moth shall eat them up like a garment,
And the worm shall eat them like wool;
But My righteousness shall be forever,
And my salvation unto all generations."
"And the ransomed of Jehovah shall return,
And come with singing unto Zion;
And everlasting joy shall be upon their heads;
They shall obtain gladness and joy;
And sorrow and sighing shall flee away."
