Read in context

Isaiah 55:3–7 · Berean Standard Bible

3 Incline your ear and come to Me; listen, so that your soul may live. I will make with you an everlasting covenant— My loving devotion promised to David.

4 Behold, I have made him a witness to the nations, a leader and commander of the peoples.

5 Surely you will summon a nation you do not know, and nations who do not know you will run to you. For the LORD your God, the Holy One of Israel, has bestowed glory on you.”

6 Seek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.

7 Let the wicked man forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that He may have compassion, and to our God, for He will freely pardon.
