Isaiah 30:17-19

Lexham English Bible

¹⁷ One thousand because of^[a] a threat of one,
    because^[b] of a threat of five you shall flee,
until you are left like a flagstaff on top^[c] of a mountain,
    and like a signal on a hill.

¹⁸ Therefore Yahweh waits to be gracious to you,
    and therefore he will rise up to show you mercy,
for Yahweh is a God of justice;
    blessed are all those who wait for him.
¹⁹ For people will live in Zion;
    in Jerusalem, you will surely not weep.
Surely he will be gracious to you;
    when he hears the sound of your cry, he will answer you.
