4 As I made him a witness to peoples,a leader and commander of peoples,
5 So shall you summon a nation you knew not,and a nation that knew you not shall run to you,Because of the Lord, your God,the Holy One of Israel, who has glorified you.
6 Seek the Lord while he may be found,call upon him while he is near.
7 Let the wicked forsake their way,and sinners their thoughts;Let them turn to the Lord to find mercy;to our God, who is generous in forgiving.
8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts,nor are your ways my ways—oracle of the Lord.
9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth,so are my ways higher than your ways,my thoughts higher than your thoughts.
10 Yet just as from the heavensthe rain and snow come downAnd do not return theretill they have watered the earth,making it fertile and fruitful,Giving seed to the one who sowsand bread to the one who eats,
