Isaiah 54:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 “[a]For a (A)brief moment I forsook you,
But with great compassion I will (B)gather you.
8 In [b]a (C)flood of fury
I hid My face from you for a moment,
But with everlasting (D)lovingkindness I will (E)have compassion on you,”
Says Yahweh your (F)Redeemer.
9 “For [c]this is like the days of Noah to Me,
When I swore that the waters of Noah
Would (G)not [d]overflow the earth again;
So I have sworn that I will (H)not be furious with you
Nor will I rebuke you.

King James Version
7 For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
8 In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the Lord thy Redeemer.
9 For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
