Isaiah 33:20-24

20 1Look at Zion, the city of our appointed feasts; Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an 2undisturbed settlement, 3A 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 4rivers and wide canals On which no boat with oars will go, And on which no mighty ship will pass--22For the Lord is our 5judge, The Lord is 6our lawgiver, The Lord is 7our king; 8He will save us--23Your ship’s tackle hangs slack; It cannot hold the base of its mast firmly, Nor spread out the sail. Then the 9prey of an abundant spoil will be divided; 10Those who limp will take the plunder.24And no resident will say, “I am 11sick”; The people who live 12there will be 13forgiven their wrongdoing.
