For this is what the ^(C1)high and exalted One Who ^(F1)(C2)lives forever, whose name is Holy, says: "I ^(C3)dwell in a high and holy place, And also with the ^(C4)contrite and lowly of spirit In order to ^(C5)revive the spirit of the lowly And to revive the heart of the contrite.

-"For I will ^(C1)not contend forever, ^(C2)Nor will I always be angry; For the spirit would grow faint before Me, And the ^(C3)breath of those whom I have made.

-"Because of the wrongful act of his ^(C1)unjust gain I was angry and struck him; I hid My face and was angry, And he went on ^(C2)turning away, in the way of his heart.

-"I have seen his ways, but I will ^(C1)heal him; I will ^(C2)lead him and ^(C3)restore comfort to him and to his mourners,

Creating the ^(F1)(C1)praise of the lips. ^(C2)Peace, peace to him who is ^(C3)far away and to him who is near," Says the LORD, "and I will heal him."
