Isaiah
Isaiah 55:9WEB·traditional attribution

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

Matthew Henry Presbyterian

Seek the Lord while He may be found, and call upon Him while He is near. This covenant of grace belongs to every soul that thirsts for happiness, not to Jews alone or captives in Babylon. God offers pardon and peace on gospel terms to all poor sinners; the appointed method is Christ as your way, the Spirit as your guide, and the Word as your rule.
