Isaiah 33:2-4

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

² O Lord, be gracious to us; we wait for you.
    Be our arm every morning,
    our salvation in the time of trouble.
³ At the sound of tumult, peoples fled;
    before your majesty, nations scattered.
⁴ Spoil was gathered as the caterpillar gathers;
    as locusts leap, they leaped^[a] upon it.
