6Seek ye Jehovah, while He is found, Call ye Him, while He is near,
7Forsake doth the wicked his way, And the man of iniquity his thoughts, And he returneth to Jehovah, and He pitieth him, And unto our God for He multiplieth to pardon.
8For not My thoughts [are] your thoughts, Nor your ways My ways, -- an affirmation of Jehovah,
9For high have the heavens been above the earth, So high have been My ways above your ways, And My thoughts above your thoughts.
10For, as come down doth the shower, And the snow from the heavens, And thither returneth not, But hath watered the earth, And hath caused it to yield, and to spring up, And hath given seed to the sower, and bread to the eater,
11So is My word that goeth out of My mouth, It turneth not back unto Me empty, But hath done that which I desired, And prosperously effected that [for] which I sent it.
12For with joy ye go forth, And with peace ye are brought in, The mountains and the hills Break forth before you [with] singing, And all trees of the field clap the hand.
