Who seek the Lord:

Look to the rock from which you were hewn

And to the quarry from which you were dug.

1“Listen to Me, you who pursue righteousness (right standing with God),

Who seek and inquire of the Lord:

Look to the rock from which you were cut

And to the excavation of the quarry from which you were dug.

1“Listen to Me, you who pursue righteousness,

you who seek the Lord:

Look to the rock from which you were cut,

and to the quarry from which you were hewn.

Pay attention, you who look to me.

Consider the rock you were cut out of.

Think about the rock pit you were dug from.
