Isaiah 16:4-6

Easy-to-Read Version

The robbing will stop.
    The enemy will be defeated.
    The men who hurt the people will be gone from the land.
⁵ Then a new king will come.
    He will be from David’s family.^[a]
    He will be loyal, loving, and kind.
He will be a king who judges fairly.
    He will do what is right and good.

⁶ We have heard that the people of Moab
    are very proud and conceited.
They are hot-tempered braggers,
    but their boasts are only empty words.
