Isaiah 57:15-17
New American Standard Bible 1995
15 For thus says the (A)high and exalted One
Who [a](B)lives forever, whose name is Holy,
“I (C)dwell on a high and holy place,
And also with the (D)contrite and lowly of spirit
In order to (E)revive the spirit of the lowly
And to revive the heart of the contrite.
16 “For I will (F)not contend forever,
(G)Nor will I always be angry;
For the spirit would grow faint before Me,
And the (H)breath of those whom I have made.
17 “Because of the iniquity of his (I)unjust gain I was angry and struck him;
I hid My face and was angry,
And he went on (J)turning away, in the way of his heart.

Isaiah 57:15-17
New International Version
15 For this is what the high and exalted(A) One says—
he who lives forever,(B) whose name is holy:
“I live in a high(C) and holy place,
but also with the one who is contrite(D) and lowly in spirit,(E)
to revive the spirit of the lowly
and to revive the heart of the contrite.(F)
16 I will not accuse(G) them forever,
nor will I always be angry,(H)
for then they would faint away because of me—
the very people(I) I have created.
17 I was enraged by their sinful greed;(J)
I punished them, and hid(K) my face in anger,
yet they kept on in their willful ways.(L)
