Isaiah 33:10 - Forerunner Commentary

Isaiah 33:10

8 ^aThe highways lie waste,
The traveling man ceases.
^bHe has broken the covenant,
¹He has despised the² cities,
He regards no man.

9 ^aThe earth mourns and languishes,
Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;
Sharon is like a wilderness,
And Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.

Impending Judgment on Zion

10 “Now^a I will rise,” says the Lord;
“Now I will be exalted,
Now I will lift Myself up.

11 ^aYou shall conceive chaff,
You shall bring forth stubble;
Your breath, as fire, shall devour you.

12 And the people shall be like the burnings of lime;
^aLike thorns cut up they shall be burned in the fire.

13 Hear, ^ayou who are afar off, what I have done;
And you who are near, acknowledge My might.”

14 The sinners in Zion are afraid;
Fearfulness has seized the hypocrites:
“Who among us shall dwell with the devouring ^afire?
Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?”

15 He who ^awalks righteously and speaks uprightly,
He who despises the gain of oppressions,
Who gestures with his hands, refusing bribes,
Who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed,
And ^bshuts his eyes from seeing evil:

16 He will dwell on¹ high;
His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks;
Bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.
