Isaiah 55:9

WEB

"For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

KJV

For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.

Commentary

For as the heavens, are higher than the earth,.... Than which there cannot be conceived a greater distance: so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts; which may denote the heavenliness of the ways and thoughts of God, the eternity and unsearchableness of them, and their excellency and preciousness; as well as the very great distance between his ways and thoughts and men's which this is designed to illustrate.
