Isaiah 33:2-4
1599 Geneva Bible
2 [a]O Lord, have mercy upon us, we have waited for thee: be thou, which wast [b]their arm in the morning, our help also in time of trouble.
3 At the noise of the tumult, the [c]people fled: at thine [d]exalting the nations were scattered.
4 And your spoil shall be gathered like the gathering of [e]caterpillars: and [f]he shall go against him like the leaping of grasshoppers.
