Isaiah Chapter 33The Darby Bible2: Jehovah, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be their arm every morning, yea, our salvation in the time of trouble. 3: At the noise of the tumult the peoples fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered. 4: And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running of locusts shall they run upon it. 5: Jehovah is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness; 6: and he shall be the stability of thy times, the riches of salvation, wisdom and knowledge: the fear of Jehovah shall be your treasure. 7: Behold, their valiant ones cry without; the messengers of peace weep bitterly. 8: The highways are desolate, the wayfaring man ceaseth. He hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man. 9: The land mourneth, it languisheth; Lebanon is ashamed, is withered; the Sharon is become as a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped. 10: Now will I arise, saith Jehovah; now will I be exalted, now will I lift up myself. 11: Ye shall conceive dry grass, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath shall devour you [as] fire. 12: And the peoples shall be [as] burnings of lime, [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire. 13: Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and ye that are near, acknowledge my might. 14: The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath surprised the hypocrites: Who among us shall dwell with the consuming fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting flames? 15: -- He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from taking hold of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil: 16: he shall dwell on high, the fortresses of the rocks shall be his high retreat; bread shall be given him, his water shall be sure. 17: Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty; they shall behold the land that is far off. 18: Thy heart shall meditate on terror: Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers? 19: Thou shalt no more see the fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst comprehend, of a stammering tongue that cannot be understood. 20: Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be pulled up, neither shall any of its cords be broken; 21: but there Jehovah is unto us glorious, -- a place of rivers, of broad streams: no galley with oars shall go there, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby. 22: For Jehovah is our judge, Jehovah, our lawgiver, Jehovah, our king: he will save us. 23: Thy tacklings are loosed; they strengthen not the socket of their mast, they cannot spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey. 24: And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven [their] iniquity.
