Isaiah 33:19-21
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 33:19-21
Contemporary English Version
19 You will never again have to see
the proud people who spoke
a strange and foreign language
you could not understand.
20 Look to Mount Zion
where we celebrate
our religious festivals.
You will see Jerusalem,
secure as a tent with pegs
that cannot be pulled up
and fastened with ropes
that can never be broken.
21 Our wonderful Lord
will be with us!
There will be deep rivers
and wide streams
safe from enemy ships.[a]
Footnotes
- 33.21 safe … ships: This probably means that Jerusalem will have a lot of water, without the danger of attacks from enemy ships.
Isaiah 33:19-21
New International Version
Isaiah 33:19-21
New International Version
19 You will see those arrogant people(A) no more,
people whose speech is obscure,
whose language is strange and incomprehensible.(B)
20 Look on Zion,(C) the city of our festivals;
your eyes will see Jerusalem,
a peaceful abode,(D) a tent(E) that will not be moved;(F)
its stakes will never be pulled up,
nor any of its ropes broken.
21 There the Lord will be our Mighty(G) One.
It will be like a place of broad rivers and streams.(H)
No galley with oars will ride them,
no mighty ship(I) will sail them.
