Isaiah 34:16
KJV
Seek ye out of the book of the LORD, and read: no one of these shall fail, none shall want her mate: for my mouth it hath commanded, and his spirit it hath gathered them.
NIV
Look [omit] in the scroll of the LORD and read: None of these will be missing, not one will lack her mate. For it is his mouth that has given the order, and his Spirit will gather them together.
Modern versions omit “ye” from this prophecy, which refers back to the worldwide audience addressed in Isa. 34:1. But the most severe change is from “my mouth” (KJV) to “his mouth” – changing this from a prophecy spoken by God into an admonition from Isaiah.
