Should I receive comfort5162 in these? 57:7 Upon a lofty1364 and high5375 mountain2022 hast thou set7760 thy bed4904: even thither wentest thou up5927 to offer2076 sacrifice2077. 57:8 Behind0310 the doors1817 also and the posts4201 hast thou set up7760 thy remembrance2146: for thou hast discovered1540 {thyself to another} than me, and art gone up5927; thou hast enlarged7337 thy bed4904, and made3772 thee {a covenant} with them; thou lovedst0157 their bed4904 where3027 thou sawest2372 {it}. 57:9 And thou wentest7788 to the king4428 with ointment8081, and didst increase7235 thy perfumes7547, and didst send7971 thy messengers6735 far off7350, and didst debase8213 {thyself even} unto hell7585. 57:10 Thou art wearied3021 in the greatness7230 of thy way1870; {yet} saidst0559 thou not, There is no hope2976: thou hast found4672 the life2416 of thine hand3027; therefore thou wast not grieved2470. 57:11 And of whom hast thou been afraid1672 or feared3372, that thou hast lied3576, and hast not remembered2142 me, nor laid7760 {it} to thy heart3820? have not I held my peace2814 even of old5769, and thou fearest3372 me not? 57:12 I will declare5046 thy righteousness6666, and thy works4639; for they shall not profit3276 thee. 57:13 When thou criest2199, let thy companies6899 deliver5337 thee; but the wind7307 shall carry them all away5375; vanity1892 shall take3947 {them}: but he that putteth his trust2620 in me shall possess5157 the land0776, and shall inherit3423 my holy6944 mountain2022; 57:14 And shall say0559, Cast ye up5549, cast ye up5549, prepare6437 the way1870, take up7311 the stumblingblock4383 out of the way1870 of my people5971. 57:15 For thus saith0559 the high7311 and lofty One5375 that inhabiteth7931 eternity5703, whose name8034 {is} Holy6918; I dwell7931 in the high4791 and holy6918 {place}, with him also {that is} of a contrite1793 and humble8217 spirit7307, to revive2421 the spirit7307 of the humble8217, and to revive2421 the heart3820 of the contrite ones1792. 57:16 For I will not contend7378 for ever5769, neither will I be always5331 wroth7107: for the spirit7307 should fail5848 before6440 me, and the souls5397 {which} I have made6213. 57:17 For the iniquity5771 of his covetousness1215 was I wroth7107, and smote5221 him: I hid5641 me, and was wroth7107, and he went on3212 frowardly7726 in the way1870 of his heart3820. 57:18 I have seen7200 his ways1870, and will heal7495 him: I will lead5148 him also, and restore7999 comforts5150 unto him and to his mourners0057. 57:19 I create1254 the fruit5108 of the lips8193; Peace7965, peace7965 to {him that is} far off7350, and to {him that is} near7138, saith0559 the LORD3068; and I will heal7495 him. 57:20 But the wicked7563 {are} like the troubled1644 sea3220, when it cannot3201 rest8252, whose waters4325 cast up1644 mire7516 and dirt2916. 57:21 {There is} no peace7965, saith0559 my God0430, to the wicked7563.
