¹⁴ The sinners^(A) in Zion are terrified;
    trembling^(B) grips the godless:
“Who of us can dwell with the consuming fire?^(C)
    Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning?”
¹⁵ Those who walk righteously^(D)
    and speak what is right,^(E)
who reject gain from extortion^(F)
    and keep their hands from accepting bribes,^(G)
who stop their ears against plots of murder
    and shut their eyes^(H) against contemplating evil—
¹⁶ they are the ones who will dwell on the heights,^(I)
    whose refuge^(J) will be the mountain fortress.^(K)
Their bread will be supplied,
    and water will not fail^(L) them.

¹⁷ Your eyes will see the king^(M) in his beauty^(N)
    and view a land that stretches afar.^(O)
18 In your thoughts you will ponder the former terror:^(P)
    “Where is that chief officer?
Where is the one who took the revenue?
    Where is the officer in charge of the towers?^(Q)”
¹⁹ You will see those arrogant people^(R) no more,
    people whose speech is obscure,
    whose language is strange and incomprehensible.^(S)

²⁰ Look on Zion,^(T) the city of our festivals;
    your eyes will see Jerusalem,
    a peaceful abode,^(U) a tent^(V) that will not be moved;^(W)
its stakes will never be pulled up,
    nor any of its ropes broken.
²¹ There the Lord will be our Mighty^(X) One.
    It will be like a place of broad rivers and streams.^(Y)
No galley with oars will ride them,
    no mighty ship^(Z) will sail them.
²² For the Lord is our judge,^(AA)
    the Lord is our lawgiver,^(AB)
the Lord is our king;^(AC)
    it is he who will save^(AD) us.

²³ Your rigging hangs loose:
    The mast is not held secure,
    the sail is not spread.
Then an abundance of spoils will be divided
    and even the lame^(AE) will carry off plunder.^(AF)
24 No one living in Zion will say, “I am ill”;^(AG)
    and the sins of those who dwell there will be forgiven.^(AH)
