¹³ “You who are far away, ^(AA)hear what I have done;
And you who are near, ^[j]acknowledge My might.”
^14 (AB)Sinners in Zion are terrified;
^(AC)Trembling has seized the godless.
“Who among us can live with ^(AD)the consuming fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting ^(AE)burning?”
¹⁵ One who ^(AF)walks righteously and speaks with integrity,
One who rejects ^[k]unjust gain
And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;
One who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed
And ^(AG)shuts his eyes from looking at evil;
¹⁶ He will dwell on the heights,
^(AH)His refuge will be the ^[l]impregnable rock;
^(AI)His bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.

¹⁷ Your eyes will see ^(AJ)the King in His beauty;
They will see ^(AK)a distant land.
¹⁸ Your heart will meditate on ^(AL)terror:
“Where is ^(AM)one who counts?
Where is one who weighs?
Where is one who counts the towers?”
¹⁹ You will no longer see a fierce people,
A people of ^[m](AN)unintelligible speech ^[n]which no one comprehends,
Of a stammering tongue ^[o]which no one understands.
^20 (AO)Look at Zion, the city of our appointed feasts;
Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an ^(AP)undisturbed settlement,
^(AQ)A tent which will not be folded;
Its stakes will never be pulled up,
Nor any of its ropes be torn apart.
²¹ But there the majestic One, the Lord, will be for us
A place of ^(AR)rivers and wide canals
On which no boat with oars will go,
And on which no mighty ship will pass—
²² For the Lord is our ^(AS)judge,
The Lord is ^(AT)our lawgiver,
The Lord is ^(AU)our king;
^(AV)He will save us—
²³ Your ship’s tackle hangs slack;
It cannot hold the base of its mast firmly,
Nor spread out the sail.
Then the ^(AW)prey of an abundant spoil will be divided;
^(AX)Those who limp will take the plunder.
²⁴ And no resident will say, “I am ^(AY)sick”;
The people who live ^[p]there will be ^(AZ)forgiven their wrongdoing.
