Isaiah 59:20

SalvationJesus ChristRepentance

18 So He will repay according to their deeds: fury to His enemies, retribution to His foes, and recompense to the islands.

19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD where the sun sets, and His glory where it rises. For He will come like a raging flood, driven by the breath of the LORD.

“The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” declares the LORD.

21 “As for Me, this is My covenant with them,” says the LORD. “My Spirit will not depart from you, and My words that I have put in your mouth will not depart from your mouth or from the mouths of your children and grandchildren, from now on and forevermore,” says the LORD.
