Isaiah 32:2

Isaiah 32:2

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;

a man—rather, the man Christ [LOWTH]; it is as "the Son of man" He is to reign, as it was as Son of man He suffered (Matthew 26:64; John 5:27; John 19:5). Not as MAURER explains, "every one of the princes shall be," etc.

rivers—as refreshing as water and the cool shade are to the heated traveller (Isaiah 35:6-7; Isaiah 41:18).
