Isaiah 30:18-33
18ThereforeH3651 the LordH3068 12longsH2442 to be graciousH2603 to you, And thereforeH3651 He 3waitsH2442 on 4highH7311 to haveH7355 compassionH7355 on you. For the LordH3068 is a 5GodH430 of justiceH4941; How blessedH835 are allH3605 those who 67longH2442 for Him.
198O peopleH5971 in ZionH6726, 9inhabitantH3427 in JerusalemH3389, you will 10weepH1058 noH3808 longerH1058. He will surelyH2603 be graciousH2603 to you at the soundH6963 of your cryH2199; when He hearsH8085 it, He will 11answerH6030 you. 20Although the LordH136 has givenH5414 you 12breadH3899 of privationH6862 and waterH4325 of oppressionH3906, He, your TeacherH4175 will noH3808 longerH5750 13hideH3670 Himself, but your eyesH5869 will beholdH7200 your TeacherH4175. 21Your earsH241 will hearH8085 a wordH1697 behindH4480H310 you, “14ThisH2088 is the 15wayH1870, walkH1980 in it,” wheneverH3588 you 16turnH3231 to the rightH3231 or to the leftH8041. 22And you will defileH2930 your gravenH6456 17imagesH6456 overlaidH6826 with silverH3701, and your moltenH4541 18imagesH4541 platedH642 with goldH2091. You will scatterH2219 them as an impureH1739 thingH1739, and sayH559 to 19them, “20Be goneH3318!”
23Then He will 21giveH5414 you rainH4306 for 22the seedH2233 whichH834 you will sowH2232 in the groundH127, and breadH3899 from the yieldH8393 of the groundH127, and it will be 23richH1879 and 24plenteousH8082; on that dayH3117 25your livestockH4735 will grazeH7462 in a roomyH7337 pastureH3733. 24Also the oxenH504 and the donkeysH5895 which workH5647 the groundH127 will eatH398 saltedH2548 fodderH1098, whichH834 26has been 27winnowedH2219 with shovelH7371 and forkH4214. 25On everyH3605 loftyH1364 mountainH2022 and on 28everyH3605 highH5375 hillH1389 there will be 29streamsH6388 runningH2988 with waterH4325 on the dayH3117 of the greatH7227 30slaughterH2027, when the towersH4026 fallH5307. 2631The lightH216 of the moonH3842 will be as the lightH216 of the sunH2535, and the lightH216 of the sunH2535 will be sevenH7659 timesH7659 brighter, like the lightH216 of sevenH7651 daysH3117, on the dayH3117 32the LordH3068 bindsH2280 up the 33fractureH7667 of His peopleH5971 and 34healsH7495 the bruiseH4273 35He has inflictedH4347.
27BeholdH2009, 36the nameH8034 of the LordH3068 comesH935 from a 37remoteH4801 placeH4801; 38BurningH1197 is His angerH639 and 39denseH3514 is His 40smokeH4858; His lipsH8193 are filledH4390 with 41indignationH2195 And His tongueH3956 is like a 42consumingH398 fireH784;28His 43breathH7307 is like an overflowingH7857 torrentH5158, Which 44reachesH2673 to the neckH6677, To 45shakeH5130 the nationsH1471 backH5130 and forthH1234 in a 46sieveH5299, And to put in the jawsH3895 of the peoplesH5971 47the bridleH7448 which 48leadsH8582 to ruinH8582.29You will haveH1961 49songsH7892 as in the nightH3915 when you keepH6942 the festivalH2282, And gladnessH8057 of heartH3824 as when one marchesH1980 to the sound of the fluteH2485, To goH935 to the mountainH2022 of the LordH3068, to the RockH6697 of IsraelH3478.30And the LordH3068 will cause 50His voiceH6963 of authorityH1935 to be heardH8085, And the 51descendingH5183 of His armH2220 to be seenH7200 in fierceH2197 angerH639, And in the flameH3851 of a consumingH398 fireH784 In cloudburstH5311, downpourH2230 and hailstones.31For 52at the voiceH6963 of the LordH3068 53AssyriaH804 will be terrifiedH2865, When He strikesH5221 with the 54rodH7626.32And everyH3605 55blowH4569 of the 5657rodH4294 of punishmentH4145, WhichH834 the LordH3068 will layH5117 on him, Will be with the music of 58tambourinesH8596 and lyresH3658; And in battlesH4421, 59brandishingH8573 weaponsH8573, He will fightH3898 them.33For 6061TophethH8613 has longH865 been readyH6186, IndeedH1571, it has been preparedH3559 for the kingH4428. He has madeH6009 it deepH6009 and largeH7337, 62A pyreH4071 of fireH784 with plentyH7235 of woodH6086; The 63breathH5397 of the LordH3068, like a torrentH5158 of 64brimstoneH1614, setsH1197 it afireH1197.
