TSK · Isaiah 27:8

Would he contend with me in the greatness of his power? No, but he would listen to me.

Yahweh, don't rebuke me in your wrath, neither chasten me in your hot displeasure.

But he, being merciful, forgave iniquity, and didn't destroy them. Yes, many times he turned his anger away, and didn't stir up all his wrath.

For he knows how we are made. He remembers that we are dust.

"Come now, and let us reason together," says Yahweh: "Though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow. Though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Alas Assyrian, the rod of my anger, the staff in whose hand is my indignation!

Thus says Yahweh, "Where is the bill of your mother's divorce, with which I have put her away? or which of my creditors is it to whom I have sold you? Behold, for your iniquities were you sold, and for your transgressions was your mother put away.

For I will not contend forever, neither will I be always angry; for the spirit would faint before me, and the souls who I have made.

"Haven't you procured this to yourself, in that you have forsaken Yahweh your God, when he led you by the way?

For thus says Yahweh, "The whole land shall be a desolation; yet will I not make a full end.

For I am with you, says Yahweh, to save you: for I will make a full end of all the nations where I have scattered you, but I will not make a full end of you; but I will correct you in measure, and will in no way leave you unpunished.

For the Lord will not cast off forever.

But it was plucked up in fury, it was cast down to the ground, and the east wind dried up its fruit: its strong rods were broken off and withered; the fire consumed them.

"Come, and let us return to Yahweh; for he has torn us to pieces, and he will heal us; he has injured us, and he will bind up our wounds.

Though he is fruitful among his brothers, an east wind will come, the breath of Yahweh coming up from the wilderness; and his spring will become dry, and his fountain will be dried up. He will plunder the storehouse of treasure.

No temptation has taken you except what is common to man. God is faithful, who will not allow you to be tempted above what you are able, but will with the temptation also make the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.
