Isaiah 55:1-5

Isaiah 55:1-5

[1] Ho,  every one that thirsteth,  ye to the waters,  and he that hath no money;  ye, buy,  and eat;  buy  wine  and milk  without money  and without price.  [2] Wherefore do ye spend  money  for that which is not bread?  and your labour  for that which satisfieth  not?  hearken  unto me, and eat  ye that which is good,  and let your soul  delight  itself in fatness.  [3] Incline  your ear,  unto me: hear,  and your soul  shall 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 people,  a leader  and commander  to the people.  [5] Behold, thou shalt call  a nation  that thou knowest  not, and nations  that knew  not thee shall run  unto thee because of the LORD  thy God,  and for the Holy One  of Israel;  for he hath glorified  thee.
