Isaiah 33:2-4

The Voice

If Assyria thinks it has a license to do whatever it wishes, to destroy whatever is in its path, to betray with impunity, then it is sure to be surprised when God shows up to rescue His people.

²We’ve been waiting for you, Eternal One, to come and shower us with grace.
    In the morning, be our strength; in times of trouble, be what saves us.
³People flee when they hear the crashing thunder of Your voice;
    nations scatter when You arise.
⁴The spoil of the nations is gathered—swiftly and decisively—
    as a hungry locust gathers, as a swarm of locusts rushes to strip the land.
