Isaiah 57:13 in context

  1. 11“Whom have you dreaded and feared,
    so that you lie,
    and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart?
    Haven’t I held my peace for a long time,
    and you don’t fear me?
  2. 12I will declare your righteousness;
    and as for your works, they will not benefit you.
  3. 13When you cry,
    let those whom you have gathered deliver you;
    but the wind will take them.
    a breath will carry them all away:
    but he who takes refuge in me will possess the land,
    and will inherit my holy mountain.”
  4. 14He will say, “Build up, build up, prepare the way!
    Remove the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.”
  5. 15For the high and lofty One who inhabits eternity,
    whose name is Holy, says:
    “I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also who is of a contrite and humble spirit,
    to revive the spirit of the humble,
    and to revive the heart of the contrite.
