Isaiah 33
1Woe 2 and who betray, but nobody betrayed you! 1 When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed; 2 and when you have finished betrayal, you will be betrayed. 1
2Yahweh 2 Be our strength every morning, 2 our salvation also in the time of trouble. 1
3At 2 When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered. 1
4Your plunder 2 Men will leap on it as locusts leap. 1
5Yahweh 2 He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness. 1
6There 2 The fear of Yahweh is your treasure. 1
7Behold 2 the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly. 1
8The 2 The traveling man ceases. 2 The covenant is broken. 2 He has despised the cities. 2 He doesn’t respect man. 1
9The 2 Lebanon is confounded and withers away. 2 Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare. 1
10“ Now 2 “ Now I will lift myself up. 2 Now I will be exalted. 1
11You 2 You will give birth to stubble. 2 Your breath is a fire that will devour you. 1
12The 2 like thorns that are cut down and burned in the fire. 1
13Hear 2 and, you who are near, acknowledge my might.” 1
14The 2 Trembling has seized the godless ones. 1 Who among us can live with the devouring fire? 2 Who among us can live with everlasting burning? 1
15He 2 and speaks blamelessly, 2 he who despises the gain of oppressions, 2 who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe, 2 who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed, 2 and shuts his eyes from looking at evil— 1
16he 2 His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks. 2 His bread will be supplied. 2 His waters will be sure. 1
17Your 2 They will see a distant land. 1
18Your 2 Where is he who counted? 2 Where is he who weighed? 2 Where is he who counted the towers? 1
19You 2 a people of a deep speech that you can’t comprehend, 2 with a strange language that you can’t understand. 1
20Look 2 Your eyes will see Jerusalem, a quiet habitation, 2 a tent that won’t be removed. 1 Its stakes will never be plucked up, 2 nor will any of its cords be broken. 1
21But 2 a place of wide rivers and streams, 2 in which no galley with oars will go, 2 neither will any gallant ship pass by there. 1
22For 2 Yahweh is our lawgiver. 2 Yahweh is our king. 2 He will save us. 1
23Your 2 They couldn’t strengthen the foot of their mast. 2 They couldn’t spread the sail. 1 Then the prey of a great plunder was divided. 2 The lame took the prey. 1
24The 2 The people who dwell therein will be forgiven their iniquity.
