1²⁶⁴“Hey! Come, everyone who thirsts, to the waters! ²⁶⁵Come, he who has no money, buy, and eat!
Yes, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price. ²⁶⁶

2Why do you spend money for that which is not bread, and your labor for that which does not satisfy? Sh'ma ·Hear obey· sh'ma ·hear obey· unto me, and eat that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in richness.

3²⁶⁷Turn your ear, and come to me. Sh'ma ·Hear obey·, and your soul will live:
and I will make an everlasting covenant ·binding contract between two or more parties· with you, even to give you the chesed ·loving-kindness· shown to David [Beloved]. ²⁶⁸

4²⁶⁹Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples, a leader and enjoiner unto the peoples.

5Behold, you shall call a nation that you don’t know; and a nation that didn’t know you shall run to you,
because of Adonai your God,
and for haKadosh Isra'el [the Holy One of God prevails];
for he has glorified you.”

6Seek Adonai while he may be found. Call on him while he is near.

7Let the wicked forsake his way, and those who practice vain striving of iniquity his thoughts. Let him make teshuvah ·complete return· to Adonai, and he will have racham ·merciful love· on him; and to our God, for he will freely pardon.

8“For my thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not my ways,” says Adonai.

9“For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways,
and my thoughts than your thoughts.

10For as the rain comes down and the snow from the sky, and does not teshuvah ·completely return· there, but waters the earth,
and makes it grow and bud,
and gives seed to the sower and bread to the eater;

11so is my word that goes out of my mouth: it will not teshuvah ·completely return· to me void,
but it will accomplish that which I please,
and it will prosper in the thing I sent it to do.

12For you shall go out with joy, and be led out with peace. The mountains and the hills will break out before you into singing; and all the trees of the fields will clap their hands.

13Instead of the thorn the cypress tree will come up; and instead of the brier the myrtle tree will come up: and it will make a name for Adonai, for an everlasting sign that will not be cut off.”
