Isaiah 57

57The righteous perisheth, and no man layeth it to heart: and merciful men are taken away, none considering that the righteous is taken away from the evil to come.H6662H6H376H7760H3820H2617H582H622H995H6662H622H6440H74512He shall enter into peace: they shall rest in their beds, each one walking in his uprightness.H935H7965H5117H4904H1980H52283But draw near hither, ye sons of the sorceress, the seed of the adulterer and the whore.H7126H1121H6049H2233H5003H21814Against whom do ye sport yourselves? against whom make ye a wide mouth, and draw out the tongue? are ye not children of transgression, a seed of falsehood.H6026H7337H6310H748H3956H3206H6588H2233H82675Enflaming yourselves with idols under every green tree, slaying the children in the valleys under the clifts of the rocks?H2552H410H7488H6086H7819H3206H5158H5585H55536Among the smooth stones of the stream is thy portion; they, they are thy lot: even to them hast thou poured a drink offering, thou hast offered a meat offering. Should I receive comfort in these?H2511H5158H2506H1486H8210H5262H5927H4503H51627Upon a lofty and high mountain hast thou set thy bed: even thither wentest thou up to offer sacrifice.H1364H5375H2022H7760H4904H5927H2076H20778Behind the doors also and the posts hast thou set up thy remembrance: for thou hast discovered thyself to another than me, and art gone up; thou hast enlarged thy bed, and made thee a covenant with them; thou lovedst their bed where thou sawest it.H310H1817H4201H7760H2146H1540H5927H7337H4904H3772H157H4904H3027H23729And thou wentest to the king with ointment, and didst increase thy perfumes, and didst send thy messengers far off, and didst debase thyself even unto hell.H7788H4428H8081H7235H7547H7971H6735H7350H8213H758510Thou art wearied in the greatness of thy way; yet saidst thou not, There is no hope: thou hast found the life of thine hand; therefore thou wast not grieved.H3021H7230H1870H559H2976H4672H2416H3027H247011And of whom hast thou been afraid or feared, that thou hast lied, and hast not remembered me, nor laid it to thy heart? have not I held my peace even of old, and thou fearest me not?H1672H3372H3576H2142H7760H3820H2814H5769H337212I will declare thy righteousness, and thy works; for they shall not profit thee.H5046H6666H4639H327613When thou criest, let thy companies deliver thee; but the wind shall carry them all away; vanity shall take them: but he that putteth his trust in me shall possess the land, and shall inherit my holy mountain;H2199H6899H5337H7307H5375H1892H3947H2620H5157H776H3423H6944H202214And shall say, Cast ye up, cast ye up, prepare the way, take up the stumblingblock out of the way of my people.H559H5549H5549H6437H1870H7311H4383H1870H597115For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.H559H7311H5375H7931H5703H8034H6918H7931H4791H6918H1793H8217H7307H2421H7307H8217H2421H3820H179216For I will not contend for ever, neither will I be always wroth: for the spirit should fail before me, and the souls which I have made.H7378H5769H5331H7107H7307H5848H6440H5397H621317For the iniquity of his covetousness was I wroth, and smote him: I hid me, and was wroth, and he went on frowardly in the way of his heart.H5771H1215H7107H5221H5641H7107H3212H7726H1870H382018I have seen his ways, and will heal him: I will lead him also, and restore comforts unto him and to his mourners.H7200H1870H7495H5148H7999H5150H5719I create the fruit of the lips; Peace, peace to him that is far off, and to him that is near, saith the LORD; and I will heal him.H1254H5108H8193H7965H7965H7350H7138H559H3068H749520But the wicked are like the troubled sea, when it cannot rest, whose waters cast up mire and dirt.H7563H1644H3220H3201H8252H4325H1644H7516H291621There is no peace, saith my God, to the wicked.H7965H559H430H7563

Prayer Tents is a Christian mission organization that serves Christians around the world and their local bodies to make disciples ("evangelize") more effectively in their communities. Prayer Tents provides resources to enable Christians to form discipleship-focused small groups and make their gatherings known so that other "interested" people may participate and experience Christ in their midst. Our Vision is to make disciples in all nations through the local churches so that anyone seeking God can come to know Him through relationships with other Christians near them.
