Isaiah 33

1WoeH1945 to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and that dealest treacherouslyH898, and they dealtH898 not treacherouslyH898 with thee! When thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; when thou shalt makeH8552 an endH8552 of dealing treacherouslyH898, they shall dealH898 treacherouslyH898 with thee. 2Jehovah, beH1961 gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: beH1961 their armH2220 every morningH1242, yea, our salvationH3444 in the timeH6256 of troubleH6869. 3At the noise of the tumultH1995 the peoplesH5971 fledH5074; at the lifting up of thyself the nationsH1471 were scatteredH5310. 4And your spoilH7998 shall be gatheredH622 [like] the gatheringH625 of the caterpillar: as the running of locusts shall they run upon it. 5Jehovah is exaltedH7682; for he dwelleth on highH4791: he hath filledH4390 ZionH6726 with justiceH4941 and righteousnessH6666; 6and he shall beH1961 the stability of thy timesH6256, the riches of salvationH3444, wisdomH2451 and knowledgeH1847: the fearH3374 of Jehovah shall beH1961 your treasureH214. 7Behold, their valiant ones cryH6817 without; the messengersH4397 of peaceH7965 weepH1058 bitterly. 8The highwaysH4546 are desolateH8074, the wayfaring man ceaseth. He hath brokenH6565 the covenantH1285, he hath despised the citiesH5892, he regardeth no man. 9The landH776 mourneth, it languisheth; LebanonH3844 is ashamed, is witheredH535; the SharonH8289 is becomeH1961 as a desertH6160, and BashanH1316 and CarmelH3760 are stripped. 10NowH6258 will I ariseH6965, saith Jehovah; nowH6258 will I be exaltedH7311, nowH6258 will I liftH5375 up myself. 11Ye shall conceiveH2029 dryH2842 grassH2842, ye shall bringH3205 forthH3205 stubbleH7179: your breathH7307 shall devourH398 you [as] fireH784. 12And the peoplesH5971 shall beH1961 [as] burnings of limeH7875, [as] thornsH6975 cutH3683 up shall they beH1961 burnedH3341 in the fireH784. 13HearH8085, ye that are farH7350 off, what I have done; and ye that are near, acknowledge my might. 14The sinnersH2400 in ZionH6726 are afraidH6342; trembling hath surprised the hypocrites: Who among us shall dwell with the consumingH398 fireH784? who among us shall dwell with everlasting flames? 15— He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gainH1215 of oppressions, that shaketh his handsH3709 from taking holdH8551 of bribesH7810, that stoppeth his earsH241 from hearing of bloodH1818, and shutteth his eyesH5869 from seeingH7200 evilH7451: 16he shall dwellH7931 on highH4791, the fortresses of the rocksH5553 shall be his highH4791 retreat; breadH3899 shall be givenH5414 him, his waterH4325 shall be sure. 17Thine eyesH5869 shall seeH7200 the KingH4428 in his beautyH3308; they shall behold the landH776 that is far off. 18Thy heartH3820 shall meditateH1897 on terrorH367: WhereH346 is the scribeH5608? whereH346 is the receiver? whereH346 is he that countedH5608 the towersH4026? 19Thou shalt no more seeH7200 the fierce peopleH5971, a peopleH5971 of a deeper speech than thou canst comprehend, of a stammering tongueH3956 that cannot be understood. 20LookH7200 upon ZionH6726, the city of our solemnities: thine eyesH5869 shall seeH7200 JerusalemH3389 a quiet habitation, a tentH168 that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be pulledH5265 up, neither shall any of its cordsH2256 be broken; 21but there Jehovah is unto us glorious, — a placeH4725 of riversH5104, of broadH7342 streams: no galley with oars shall go there, neither shall gallant ship passH5674 thereby. 22For Jehovah is our judgeH8199, Jehovah, our lawgiver, Jehovah, our kingH4428: he will saveH3467 us. 23Thy tacklings are loosed; they strengthenH2388 not the socket of their mastH8650, they cannot spreadH6566 the sailH5251: thenH227 is the preyH957 of a great spoilH7998 dividedH2505; the lameH6455 takeH2388 the preyH957. 24And the inhabitantH3427 shall not sayH559, I am sickH2470: the peopleH5971 that dwellH3427 therein shall be forgiven [their] iniquityH5771.
