Isaiah 57:16-18

16For I will not be hostile forever or perpetually angry, for then man’s spirit would grow faint before me, the life-giving breath I created.

17I was angry because of their sinful greed; I attacked them and angrily rejected them, yet they remained disobedient and stubborn.

18I have seen their behavior, but I will heal them and give them rest, and I will once again console those who mourn.
