Isaiah 59:19-21
International Standard Version
19 So people will fear the name of the Lord from the west,
and his glories[a] from the rising of the sun;
for he will come as a pent-up stream
that the breath of the Lord drives along.
20 “And a Redeemer will come to Zion,
to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” says the Lord.
21 “As for me, this is my covenant with them,”[b] says the Lord. “And[c] my Spirit that is upon you, and my words that I have put in your mouth, won’t depart from your mouth, or from the mouths of your children, or from the mouths of your children’s children,[d] from now on and forever.”
