Isaiah 54:7-9
English Standard Version
7 (A)For a brief moment I deserted you,
but with great compassion I will gather you.
8 (B)In overflowing anger for a moment
I hid my face from you,
(C)but with everlasting love I will have compassion on you,”
says the Lord, your Redeemer.
9 “This is like (D)the days of Noah[a] to me:
as I swore that the waters of Noah
should no more go over the earth,
so I have sworn that I will not be angry with you,
and will not rebuke you.
