Isaiah 33:21-23
1599 Geneva Bible
21 For surely there the mighty Lord will be unto us, as a place [a]of floods, and broad rivers, whereby shall pass no ship with oars, neither shall great ship pass thereby.
22 For the Lord is our Judge, the Lord is our lawgiver: the Lord is our King, he will save us.
23 Thy [b]cords are loosed: they could not well strengthen their mast, neither could they spread the sail: then shall the [c]prey be divided for a great spoil: yea, the lame shall take away the prey.
