For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.

The verse 9 is found in chapter 54 of Isaiah. Barren Jerusalem is commanded to enlarge her tent because she will have many children. Restoration is explained through marital imagery: abandonment was temporary, while God’s love and covenant remain. The covenant of peace and future security culminate in the affirmation that no weapon formed against Yahweh’s servants will ultimately prosper.

Denn solches soll mir sein wie das Wasser Noahs, da ich schwur, daß die Wasser Noahs sollten nicht mehr über den Erdboden gehen. Also habe ich geschworen, daß ich nicht über dich zürnen noch dich schelten will.
Porque esto me será como las aguas de Noé; que juré que nunca más las aguas de Noé pasarían sobre la tierra; así he jurado que no me enojaré contra ti, ni te reñiré.
Porque esto es para mí como las aguas de Noé: así como juré que las aguas de Noé no volverían a pasar sobre la tierra, así he jurado que no me enojaré contra ti ni te reprenderé.
Il en sera pour moi comme des eaux de Noé: J'avais juré que les eaux de Noé ne se répandraient plus sur la terre; Je jure de même de ne plus m'irriter contre toi Et de ne plus te menacer.
Perciocchè questo mi sarà come le acque di Noè; conciossiachè, come io giurai che le acque di Noè non passerebbero più sopra la terra, così ho giurato che non mi adirerò più contro a te, e non ti sgriderò più.
Porque isto será para mim como as águas de Noé; pois jurei que as águas de Noé não passariam mais sobre a terra; assim jurei que não me irarei mais contra ti, nem te repreenderei.
這事於我有如 挪亞 的洪水; 我怎樣起誓不再使 挪亞 的洪水淹沒全地, 也照樣起誓不再向你發怒, 且不斥責你。
