astray, each one has turned to his own way; and the LORD has laid
upon Him the iniquity of us all.
Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Seek the LORD while He may be found; call on Him while He is near.
Let the wicked
forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy
upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly
pardon.
Let the wicked man
forsake his own way and the unrighteous man his own thoughts; let him return to the LORD, that He may have
compassion, and to our God, for He will freely
pardon.
