Isaiah 33 Woe, you devastator, and you were not devastated! And you treacherous one, and they were not treacherous against you! As you come to an end with devastation, you shall be devastated. As you finish with treachery, they will be treacherous against you."

CLV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹ Woe, you devastator, and you were not devastated! And you treacherous one, and they were not treacherous against you! As you come to an end with devastation, you shall be devastated. As you finish with treachery, they will be treacherous against you." ² Yahweh, be gracious to us! Toward You we stretch. And become You our arm for the mornings, indeed, our salvation in the season of distress." ³ Because of the sound of the throng, the peoples wander. Because of the thunder, the nations are scattered." ⁴ And your loot is gathered as the gathering of the beetle, as the prowl of arching caterpillars, prowling in it." ⁵ Impregnable is Yahweh, for He tabernacles in the height; He fills Zion with judgment and justice." ⁶ It comes to be the faithfulness of your eras. The safeguard of salvation is wisdom and knowledge. The fear of Yahweh, it is its treasure." ⁷ Behold! Their lion-subjectors cry outside. The messengers of welfare are bitterly lamenting. ⁸ Desolated are the highways. The passer of the path ceases. He annuls the covenant, he rejects witnesses. He does not take account of a mortal." ⁹ Mournful, enfeebled is the land. Abashed is Lebanon; it is withered. And Sharon has become as a gorge. And denuded are Bashan and Carmel." ¹⁰ Now will I rise!saying is Yahweh. "Now will I be exalted! Now will I be lifted up!" ¹¹ You will be pregnant with chaff. You will generate straw. Your spirit is fire. It will devour you. ¹² Become will the peoples as the burnings of lime, as thorns grubbed up, in fire shall they be ravaged." ¹³ Hear, you that are afar, what I do. And know, you that are near, My mastery." ¹⁴ Afraid are the sinners in Zion, quivering holds the polluted. Who is telling you of the devouring fire? Who is telling you of the glowings eonian? ¹⁵ He who goes in righteousness, and speaks equities, who rejects the gain of extortions, who shakes his palms from upholding a bribe, who contracts his ear from hearkening to blood plans, and restrains his eyes from seeing evil--" ¹⁶ he shall tabernacle on the heights, fastnesses of crags are his impregnable retreat. His bread shall be bestowed. His water shall be assured." ¹⁷ The king in his loveliness your eyes shall perceive. They shall see a land afar off. ¹⁸ Your heart shall soliloquize concerning past dread. "Where is the numberer? Where is the weigher? Where is the numberer of those growing up? ¹⁹ The small and great people, who will not counsel, you shall not see. A people of a deeper lip than is heard, with a derided tongue which is not understood." ²⁰ Perceive Zion, the town of our appointments. Your eyes shall see Jerusalem, a tranquil homestead. A tent which will fail to be shunted, its pegs will fail permanently to be shifted, and all its cables will fail to be pulled away." ²¹ But rather, there Yahweh is noble to you, a place of streams comes to be yours, waterways wide on all hands. There shall fail to go in it a ship with rowers, and a boat that is noble shall not pass on it." ²² For Yahweh is our Judge, and Yahweh is our Statute Maker, and Yahweh is our King; He will save us!" ²³ Let go your cables; they will fail to make fast the base of your mast. They fail to lower the sails. They fail to spread the banner. Then will be apportioned unto the blind an increase of loot. Many lame will plunder the plunder. ²⁴ And fail shall the tabernacler to say, "I am ill.The people dwelling in it; borne for them is their depravity."
