Chapter 33

1


 

  Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou [wast] not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! when thou shalt cease to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; [and] when thou shalt make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.  

 

 


2


 

  O LORD, be gracious unto us; we have waited for thee: be thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.  

 

 


3


 

  At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of thyself the nations were scattered.  

 

 


4


 

  And your spoil shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpiller: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.  

 

 


5


 

  The LORD is exalted; for he dwelleth on high: he hath filled Zion with judgment and righteousness.  

 

 


6


 

  And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the LORD [is] his treasure.  

 

 


7


 

  Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.  

 

 


8


 

  The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth: he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth no man.  

 

 


9


 

  The earth mourneth [and] languisheth: Lebanon is ashamed [and] hewn down: Sharon is like a wilderness; and Bashan and Carmel shake off [their fruits].  

 

 


10


 

  Now will I rise, saith the LORD; now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.  

 

 


11


 

  Ye shall conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.  

 

 


12


 

  And the people shall be [as] the burnings of lime: [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.  

 

 


13


 

  Hear, ye [that are] far off, what I have done; and, ye [that are] near, acknowledge my might.  

 

 


14


 

  The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?  

 

 


15


 

  He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from seeing evil;  

 

 


16


 

  He shall dwell on high: his place of defence [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure.  

 

 


17


 

  Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.  

 

 


18


 

  Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?  

 

 


19


 

  Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not understand.  

 

 


20


 

  Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle [that] shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.  

 

 


21


 

  But there the glorious LORD [will be] unto us a place of broad rivers [and] streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.  

 

 


22


 

  For the LORD [is] our judge, the LORD [is] our lawgiver, the LORD [is] our king; he will save us.  

 

 


23


 

  Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.  

 

 


24


 

  And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein [shall be] forgiven [their] iniquity.
