A Reign of Righteousness

1 Behold, aa king will reign in righteousness,
And princes will rule with justice. 
2 A man will be as a hiding place from the wind,
And a1a cover from the tempest,
As rivers of water in a dry place,
As the shadow of a great rock in a weary land. 
3 aThe eyes of those who see will not be dim,
And the ears of those who hear will listen. 
4 Also the heart of the1 rash will aunderstand knowledge,
And the tongue of the stammerers will be ready to speak plainly. 
5 The foolish person will no longer be called1 generous,
Nor the miser said to be bountiful; 
6 For the foolish person will speak foolishness,
And his heart will work ainiquity:
To practice ungodliness,
To utter error against the Lord,
To keep the hungry unsatisfied,
And he will cause the drink of the thirsty to fail.

John Wesley's Notes
<< Isaiah 31:9   Isaiah 32:2 >>


Isaiah 32:1

Behold - This seems to be a distinct prophecy from the former, and delivered before that which is related in the former chapters. The prophecies are not always set down in that order, in which the prophets delivered them. The foregoing prophecy was delivered, not in the time of Ahaz for he sent to the Assyrian, not the Egyptian, for help; it was Hezekiah, who rebelled against the king of Assyria, and was too prone to trust upon the staff of Egypt. But this seems to have been delivered in the time of Ahaz. A king - Hezekiah, a type of Christ, and Christ typified by him.
