Isaiah 33:16-18

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁶ they will live on the heights;
    their refuge will be the fortresses of rocks;
    their food will be supplied, their water assured.

¹⁷ Your eyes will see the king in his beauty;
    they will behold a land that stretches far away.
¹⁸ Your mind will muse on the terror:
    “Where is the one who counted?
    Where is the one who weighed the tribute?
    Where is the one who counted the towers?”
