Isaiah 51:6-8
King James Version
6 Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.
7 Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.
8 For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.

Isaiah 51:6-8
New King James Version
6 (A)Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
And look on the earth beneath.
For (B)the heavens will vanish away like smoke,
(C)The earth will grow old like a garment,
And those who dwell in it will die in like manner;
But My salvation will be (D)forever,
And My righteousness will not be [a]abolished.
7 “Listen to Me, you who know righteousness,
You people (E)in whose heart is My law:
(F)Do not fear the reproach of men,
Nor be afraid of their insults.
8 For (G)the moth will eat them up like a garment,
And the worm will eat them like wool;
But My righteousness will be forever,
And My salvation from generation to generation.”
