Isaiah 55:1-3

The Compassion of the Lord

1 aCome, everyone who thirsts,
come to the waters;
and he who has no money,
bcome, buy and eat!
Come, buy wine and milk
without money and without price.
2 cWhy do you spend your money for that which is not bread,
and your labor for that which does not satisfy?
Listen diligently to me, and eat what is good,
and delight yourselves in rich food.
3Incline your ear, and come to me;
dhear, that your soul may live;
eand I will make with you an everlasting covenant,
fmy steadfast, sure love for gDavid.

Isaiah 55:6-7

6 hSeek the Lord while he may be found;
call upon him while he is near;
7let the wicked forsake his way,
and the unrighteous man his thoughts;
let him return to the Lord, that he may have compassion on him,
and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.

Jeremiah 3:14

14 iReturn, O faithless children,

declares the Lord;
jfor I am your master;
I will take you, one from a city and two from a family,
and I will bring you to Zion.

Ezekiel 18:27-30

27Again, kwhen a wicked person turns away from the wickedness he has committed and does what is just and right, he shall save his life. 28Because he considered and turned away from all the transgressions that he had committed, he shall surely live; he shall not die. 29Yet the house of Israel says, ‘The way of the Lord is not just.’ O house of Israel, are my ways not just? Is it not your ways that are not just?

30Therefore lI will judge you, O house of Israel, every one according to his ways, declares the Lord God. mRepent and turn from all your transgressions, nlest iniquity be your ruin.
Or lest iniquity be your stumbling block

Ezekiel 33:11

11Say to them, pAs I live, declares the Lord God, qI have no pleasure in the death of the wicked, but that the wicked turn from his way and live; rturn back, turn back from your evil ways, sfor why will you die, O house of Israel?
