Isaiah 54  New International Version

⁴ “Do not be afraid;^(L) you will not be put to shame.^(M)
    Do not fear disgrace;^(N) you will not be humiliated.
You will forget the shame of your youth^(O)
    and remember no more the reproach^(P) of your widowhood.^(Q)
5 For your Maker^(R) is your husband^(S)—
    the Lord Almighty is his name—
the Holy One^(T) of Israel is your Redeemer;^(U)
    he is called the God of all the earth.^(V)
6 The Lord will call you back^(W)
    as if you were a wife deserted^(X) and distressed in spirit—
a wife who married young,^(Y)
    only to be rejected,” says your God.
⁷ “For a brief moment^(Z) I abandoned^(AA) you,
    but with deep compassion^(AB) I will bring you back.^(AC)
8 In a surge of anger^(AD)
    I hid^(AE) my face from you for a moment,
but with everlasting kindness^(AF)
    I will have compassion^(AG) on you,”
    says the Lord your Redeemer.^(AH)

⁹ “To me this is like the days of Noah,
    when I swore that the waters of Noah would never again cover the earth.^(AI)
So now I have sworn^(AJ) not to be angry^(AK) with you,
    never to rebuke^(AL) you again.
¹⁰ Though the mountains be shaken^(AM)
    and the hills be removed,
yet my unfailing love^(AN) for you will not be shaken^(AO)
    nor my covenant^(AP) of peace^(AQ) be removed,”
    says the Lord, who has compassion^(AR) on you.

¹¹ “Afflicted^(AS) city, lashed by storms^(AT) and not comforted,^(AU)
    I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,^[a](AV)
    your foundations^(AW) with lapis lazuli.^(AX)
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
    your gates^(AY) of sparkling jewels,
    and all your walls of precious stones.
¹³ All your children will be taught by the Lord,^(AZ)
    and great will be their peace.^(BA)
14 In righteousness^(BB) you will be established:^(BC)
Tyranny^(BD) will be far from you;
    you will have nothing to fear.^(BE)
Terror^(BF) will be far removed;
    it will not come near you.
¹⁵ If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
    whoever attacks you will surrender^(BG) to you.

¹⁶ “See, it is I who created the blacksmith^(BH)
    who fans the coals into flame
    and forges a weapon^(BI) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer^(BJ) to wreak havoc;
¹⁷     no weapon forged against you will prevail,^(BK)
    and you will refute^(BL) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants^(BM) of the Lord,
    and this is their vindication^(BN) from me,”
declares the Lord.
