Isaiah 30:18-33

18And thereforeH3651 will Jehovah waitH2442, that he may be gracious unto you; and thereforeH3651 will he be exaltedH7311, that he may have mercyH7355 upon you: for Jehovah is a GodH430 of justiceH4941; blessed are all they that waitH2442 for him. 19For the peopleH5971 shall dwellH3427 in ZionH6726 at JerusalemH3389; thou shalt weepH1058 no more; he will surely be gracious unto thee at the voiceH6963 of thy cryH2201; when he shall hearH8085, he will answerH6030 thee. 20And though the LordH136 giveH5414 you the breadH3899 of adversity and the waterH4325 of affliction, yetH5750 shall not thy teachers beH1961 hidden anymore, but thine eyesH5869 shall seeH7200 thy teachers; 21and thine earsH241 shall hearH8085 a wordH1697 behind thee, sayingH559, This is the wayH1870, walk ye in it; when ye turn to the right hand, and when ye turn to the left. 22And ye shall defileH2930 the overlayingH6826 of thy graven images of silverH3701, and the plating of thy molten images of goldH2091: thou shalt cast them away as an uncleanH2930 thing; thou shalt sayH559 unto it, Get thee hence.

23And he will giveH5414 the rainH4306 for thy seedH2233, wherewith thou shalt sowH2232 the groundH127; and breadH3899 of the increase of the groundH127, and it shall beH1961 fat and plenteous. In that dayH3117 shall thy cattle feedH7462 in largeH7337 pastures; 24the oxen likewise and the young asses that till the groundH127 shall eatH398 savory provender, which hath been winnowedH2219 with the shovel and with the fork. 25And there shall beH1961 upon every lofty mountainH2022, and upon every highH1364 hillH2022, brooks and streamsH6388 of watersH4325, in the dayH3117 of the greatH7227 slaughterH2027, when the towersH4026 fallH5307. 26Moreover the lightH216 of the moonH3842 shall beH1961 as the lightH216 of the sunH2535, and the lightH216 of the sunH2535 shall beH1961 sevenfoldH7659, as the lightH216 of sevenH7651 daysH3117, in the dayH3117 that Jehovah bindeth up the hurt of his peopleH5971, and healeth the stroke of their woundH4347.

27Behold, the nameH8034 of Jehovah cometh from far, burning with his angerH639, and in thick rising smoke: his lipsH8193 are fullH4390 of indignationH2195, and his tongueH3956 is as a devouringH398 fireH784; 28and his breathH7307 is as an overflowingH7857 stream, that reacheth even unto the neckH6677, to sift the nationsH1471 with the sieve of destruction: and a bridle that causeth to errH8582 shall be in the jawsH3895 of the peoplesH5971. 29Ye shall have a songH7892 as in the nightH3915 when a holyH6942 feastH2282 is kept; and gladnessH8057 of heartH3824, as when one goeth with a pipe to comeH935 unto the mountainH2022 of Jehovah, to the RockH6697 of IsraelH3478. 30And Jehovah will cause his glorious voiceH6963 to be heardH8085, and will showH7200 the lighting down of his armH2220, with the indignation of his angerH639, and the flameH3851 of a devouringH398 fireH784, with a blast, and tempest, and hailstones. 31For through the voiceH6963 of Jehovah shall the Assyrian be dismayedH2865; with his rodH7626 will he smite him. 32And every stroke of the appointed staffH4294, which Jehovah shall lay upon him, shall beH1961 with the sound of tabrets and harpsH3658; and in battlesH4421 with the brandishingH8573 of his arm will he fightH3898 with them. 33For a Topheth is preparedH3559 of old; yea, for the kingH4428 it is made ready; he hath made it deepH6009 and largeH7337; the pileH4071 thereof is fireH784 and muchH7235 woodH6086; the breathH5397 of Jehovah, like a stream of brimstone, doth kindleH1197 it.
