Isaiah 30:15-17
New Catholic Bible
15 For thus says the Lord God,
the Holy One of Israel:
Your salvation depends upon repentance and tranquility
and your strength upon quiet trust.
But you would have none of it.
16 “No,” you said. “We will flee upon horses.”
Therefore, you will flee.
“We will ride on swift horses,” you added.
But your pursuers will be even more swift.
17 A thousand will tremble at the threat of one;
if five threaten you, you will flee,
until you are left
like a flagstaff on the top of a mountain
or like a banner on a hill.

15 This is what the Sovereign(A) Lord, the Holy One(B) of Israel, says:
“In repentance and rest(C) is your salvation,
in quietness and trust(D) is your strength,
but you would have none of it.(E)
16 You said, ‘No, we will flee(F) on horses.’(G)
Therefore you will flee!
You said, ‘We will ride off on swift horses.’
Therefore your pursuers will be swift!
17 A thousand will flee
at the threat of one;
at the threat of five(H)
you will all flee(I) away,
till you are left(J)
like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
like a banner(K) on a hill.”
