“so that he who blesses himself on the earth will bless himself in the God of truth; and he who swears on the earth will swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hidden from my eyes.”

Reading this verse in context

This page shows one verse on its own, which is rarely how it was written. Isaiah 65 contains 25 verses, and the sentences either side usually decide what this one means. Read the whole chapter before you quote it.
