3. Turn your ear, and come to me.Hear, and your soul will live:and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
4. Behold, I have given him for a witness to the peoples,a leader and commander to the peoples.
5. Behold, you shall call a nation that you don’t know;and a nation that didn’t know you shall run to you,because of the Lord your God,and for the Holy One of Israel;for he has glorified you.”
6. Seek the Lord while he may be found.Call on him while he is near.
7. Let the wicked forsake his way,and the unrighteous man his thoughts.Let him return to the Lord, and he will have mercy on him;and to our God, for he will freely pardon.
8. “For my thoughts are not your thoughts,and your ways are not my ways,” says the Lord.
