Isaiah 59:16-21

16And he sawH7200 that there was no manH376, and wondered that there was no intercessor: therefore his own armH2220 brought salvation unto him; and his righteousnessH6666, it upheld him. 17And he putH3847 on righteousnessH6666 as a breastplate, and a helmetH3553 of salvationH3444 upon his headH7218; and he putH3847 on garmentsH899 of vengeanceH5359 for clothingH899, and was clad with zealH7068 as a mantle. 18According to their deeds, accordingly he will repayH7999, wrathH2534 to his adversaries, recompenseH1576 to his enemiesH341; to the islandsH339 he will repayH7999 recompenseH1576. 19So shall they fearH3372 the nameH8034 of Jehovah from the westH4628, and his gloryH3519 from the rising of the sunH8121; for he will comeH935 as a rushing stream, which the breathH7307 of Jehovah driveth. 20And a RedeemerH1350 will comeH935 to ZionH6726, and unto them that turnH7725 from transgressionH6588 in JacobH3290, saith Jehovah. 21And as for me, this is my covenantH1285 with them, saith Jehovah: my SpiritH7307 that is upon thee, and my wordsH1697 which I have putH7760 in thy mouthH6310, shall not departH4185 out of thy mouthH6310, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seedH2233, nor out of the mouthH6310 of thy seed’s seedH2233, saith Jehovah, from henceforth and for everH5769.
