13Your false gods will not keep you safe in answer to your cry; but the wind will take them, they will be gone like a breath: but he who puts his hope in me will take the land, and will have my holy mountain as his heritage.
14And I will say, Make it high, make it high, get ready the way, take the stones out of the way of my people.
15For this is the word of him who is high and lifted up, whose resting-place is eternal, whose name is Holy: my resting-place is in the high and holy place, and with him who is crushed and poor in spirit, to give life to the spirit of the poor, and to make strong the heart of the crushed.
16For I will not give punishment for ever, or be angry without end: for from me breath goes out; and I it was who made the souls.
17I was quickly angry with his evil ways, and sent punishment on him, veiling my face in wrath: and he went on, turning his heart from me.
18I have seen his ways, and I will make him well: I will give him rest, comforting him and his people who are sad.
19I will give the fruit of the lips: Peace, peace, to him who is near and to him who is far off, says the Lord; and I will make him well.
