Isaiah 57:18-21

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹⁸    I saw his ways,
    but I will heal him, and I will lead him,
    and I will restore comfort to him
    and to all who mourn with him.
¹⁹    I am the one who creates praise as the fruit of their lips.^[a]

Peace, peace to the one far off and to the one nearby,
says the Lord,
and I will heal him.
²⁰But the wicked are like the tossing sea,
which is not able to rest.
Its waters toss up dirt and mud.
²¹There is no peace, says my God, for the wicked.
