Isaiah 55:9
| ← Isaiah 55:8 | Isaiah 55:9 (KJV) | Isaiah 55:10 → |
|---|---|---|
For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
|
For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
|
For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
