Chapter 33

1


 

  Wo, spoiler! and thou not spoiled, And treacherous! and they dealt not treacherously with thee, When thou dost finish, O spoiler, thou art spoiled, When thou dost finish dealing treacherously, They deal treacherously with thee.

2


 

  O Jehovah, favour us, for thee we have waited, Be their arm, in the mornings, Yea, our salvation in time of adversity.  

 

 

-

3


 

  From the voice of a multitude fled have peoples, From thine exaltation scattered have been nations.  

 

 

-

4


 

  And gathered hath been your spoil, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts is he running on it.  

 

 

-

5


 

  Set on high is Jehovah, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,  

 

 

-

6


 

  And hath been the stedfastness of thy times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of Jehovah -- it [is] His treasure.  

 

 

-

7


 

  Lo, 'Their Ariel,' they have cried without, Messengers of peace do weep bitterly.  

 

 

-

8


 

  Desolated have been highways, Ceased hath he who passeth along the path, He hath broken covenant, He hath despised enemies, He hath not esteemed a man.  

 

 

-

9


 

  Mourned, languished hath the land, Confounded hath been Lebanon, Withered hath been Sharon as a wilderness, And shaking are Bashan and Carmel.  

 

 

-

10


 

  Now, do I arise, saith Jehovah, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.  

 

 

-

11


 

  Ye conceive chaff, ye bear stubble, Your spirit! -- fire devoureth you.  

 

 

-

12


 

  And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, with fire they burn.  

 

 

-

13


 

  Hear, ye far off, that which I have done, And know, ye near ones, My might.  

 

 

-

14


 

  Afraid in Zion have been sinners, Seized hath trembling the profane: Who doth dwell for us -- consuming fire, Who doth dwell for us -- burnings of the age?  

 

 

-

15


 

  Whoso is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,  

 

 

-

16


 

  He high places doth inhabit, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread hath been given, his waters stedfast.  

 

 

-

17


 

  A king in his beauty, see do thine eyes, They see a land afar off.  

 

 

-

18


 

  Thy heart doth meditate terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?  

 

 

-

19


 

  The strong people thou seest not, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.  

 

 

-

20


 

  See Zion, the city of our meetings, Thine eyes see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, Not removed are its pins for ever, And none of its cords are broken.  

 

 

-

21


 

  But there mighty [is] Jehovah for us, A place of rivers -- streams broad of sides, No ship with oars doth go into it, And a mighty ship doth not pass over it.  

 

 

-

22


 

  For Jehovah our judge, Jehovah our lawgiver, Jehovah our king -- He doth save us.  

 

 

-

23


 

  Left have been thy ropes, They strengthen not rightly their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then apportioned hath been a prey of much spoil, The lame have taken spoil.  

 

 

-

24


 

  Nor doth an inhabitant say, 'I was sick,' The people that is dwelling in it, is forgiven of iniquity!
