Isaiah 57:16
For I will not accuse you forever, nor will I always be angry; for then the spirit of man would grow weak before Me, with the breath of those I have made.
Context
16“For I will not contend forever,
         Nor will I always be angry;
         For the spirit would grow faint before Me,
         And the breath of those whom I have made.

17“Because of the iniquity of his unjust gain I was angry and struck him;
         I hid My face and was angry,
         And he went on turning away, in the way of his heart.

18“I have seen his ways, but I will heal him;
         I will lead him and restore comfort to him and to his mourners,

19Creating the praise of the lips.
         Peace, peace to him who is far and to him who is near,”
         Says the LORD, “and I will heal him.”

20But the wicked are like the tossing sea,
         For it cannot be quiet,
         And its waters toss up refuse and mud.

21“There is no peace,” says my God, “for the wicked.”
