Isaiah 59:18

Isaiah 59:18

The Redeemer of Zion

16 ^aHe saw that there was no man,
And ^bwondered that there was no intercessor;
^cTherefore His own arm brought salvation for Him;
And His own righteousness, it sustained Him.

17 ^aFor He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
And a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing,
And was clad with zeal as a cloak.

18 ^aAccording to their deeds, accordingly He will repay,
Fury to His adversaries,
Recompense to His enemies;
The coastlands He will fully repay.

19 ^aSo shall they fear
The name of the Lord from the west,
And His glory from the rising of the sun;
When the enemy comes in ^blike a flood,
The Spirit of the Lord will lift up a standard against him.

20 “The^a Redeemer will come to Zion,
And to those who turn from transgression in Jacob,”
Says the Lord.
