Isaiah 57:15-21

Isaiah 57:15-21 CSB

For the High and Exalted One, who lives forever, whose name is holy,  says this: “I live in a high and holy place, and with the oppressed and lowly of spirit,  to revive the spirit of the lowly and revive the heart of the oppressed.  For I will not accuse you forever, and I will not always be angry;  for then the spirit would grow weak before me, even the breath, which I have made. Because of his sinful greed I was angry,  so I struck him; I was angry and hid; but he went on turning back to the desires of his heart. I have seen his ways, but I will heal him; I will lead him and restore comfort to him and his mourners,  creating words of praise.”  , The LORD says, “Peace, peace to the one who is far or near,  and I will heal him. But the wicked are like the storm-tossed sea,  for it cannot be still, and its water churns up mire and muck. There is no peace for the wicked,” says my God.
