Isaiah 32:1-8

MSB(i) 1 Behold, a king will reign in righteousness, and princes will rule with justice. 2 Each will be like a shelter from the wind, a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in a dry land, like the shadow of a great rock in an arid land. 3 Then the eyes of those who see will no longer be closed, and the ears of those who hear will listen. 4 The mind of the rash will know and understand, and the stammering tongue will speak clearly and fluently. 5 No longer will a fool be called noble, nor a scoundrel be respected. 6 For a fool speaks foolishness; his mind plots iniquity. He practices ungodliness and speaks falsely about the LORD; he leaves the hungry empty and deprives the thirsty of drink. 7 The weapons of the scoundrel are destructive; he hatches plots to destroy the poor with lies, even when the plea of the needy is just. 8 But a noble man makes honorable plans; he stands up for worthy causes.
