Isaiah 33:17-22

17Your eyes will see 1the King in His beauty; They will see 2a distant land.18Your heart will meditate on 3terror: “Where is 4one who counts? Where is one who weighs? Where is one who counts the towers?”19You will no longer see a fierce people, A people of 56unintelligible speech 7which no one comprehends, Of a stammering tongue 8which no one understands.209Look at Zion, the city of our appointed feasts; Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an 10undisturbed settlement, 11A tent which will not be folded; Its stakes will never be pulled up, Nor any of its ropes be torn apart.21But there the majestic One, the Lord, will be for us A place of 12rivers and wide canals On which no boat with oars will go, And on which no mighty ship will pass--22For the Lord is our 13judge, The Lord is 14our lawgiver, The Lord is 15our king; 16He will save us--
