aLike a breach ready to fall,
A bulge in a high wall,
Whose breaking bcomes suddenly, in an instant.
Which is broken in pieces;
He shall not spare.
So there shall not be found among its fragments
1A shard to take fire from the hearth,
Or to take water from the cistern.”
a“In returning and rest you shall be saved;
In quietness and confidence shall be your strength.”
bBut you would not,
Therefore you shall flee!
And, “We will ride on swift horses”—
Therefore those who pursue you shall be swift!
At the threat of five you shall flee,
Till you are left as a1 pole on top of a mountain
And as a banner on a hill.
God Will Be Gracious
And therefore He will be exalted, that He may have mercy on you.
For the Lord is a God of justice;
bBlessed are all those who cwait for Him.
You shall bweep no more.
He will be very gracious to you at the sound of your cry;
When He hears it, He will canswer you.
| << Isaiah 30:14 | Isaiah 30:16 >> |
