Isaiah
Isaiah 55:8ASV·traditional attribution

For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith Jehovah.

Keil & Delitzsch Lutheran

Heaven is as high above the earth as God's ways are above your ways and His thoughts above your thoughts. This heaven-wide elevation shows they are neither fickle, unreliable, nor powerless. God's ways and thoughts stand in absolute difference from man's despairing and aimless labyrinth.

Commenting on Isaiah 55:8-9

Jamieson-Fausset-Brown Reformed

You need not doubt His willingness to pardon abundantly. Though the wicked man's ways seem unpardonable by human measure, God's thoughts and ways in pardoning are not regulated by the proportion of sin, as man's would be toward his fellow man.

Geneva Bible Notes Reformed

For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD. (l) Although you are not soon reconciled one to another and judge me by yourselves, yet I am easy to be reconciled, yea, I offer my mercies to you.
