Isaiah 48:18-20
Easy-to-Read Version
18 If you had obeyed me,
then peace would have come to you
like a full flowing river.
Good things would have come to you again and again,
like the waves of the sea.
19 If you had obeyed me,
you would have had as many children as there are grains of sand.
And they would always have been mine
and would never have been destroyed.”
20 My people, leave Babylon!
My people, run from the Chaldeans!
Tell the news with joy.
Spread the news around the world.
Tell them,
“The Lord rescued his servant Jacob.”
Isaiah 48:18-20
New International Version
18 If only you had paid attention(A) to my commands,
your peace(B) would have been like a river,(C)
your well-being(D) like the waves of the sea.
19 Your descendants(E) would have been like the sand,(F)
your children like its numberless grains;(G)
their name would never be blotted out(H)
nor destroyed from before me.”
