Isaiah 16:4-6
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 16:4-6
Contemporary English Version
4 Let our people live
in your country
and find safety here.”
Moab, your cruel enemies
will disappear;
they will no longer attack
and destroy your land.
5 Then a kingdom of love
will be set up,
and someone from David's family
will rule with fairness.
He will do what is right
and quickly bring justice.
Moab's Pride Is Destroyed
6 We have heard of Moab's pride.
Its people strut and boast,
but without reason.
Isaiah 16:4-6
New International Version
Isaiah 16:4-6
New International Version
4 Let the Moabite fugitives stay with you;
be their shelter(A) from the destroyer.”
The oppressor(B) will come to an end,
and destruction will cease;(C)
the aggressor will vanish from the land.
5 In love a throne(D) will be established;(E)
in faithfulness a man will sit on it—
one from the house[a] of David(F)—
one who in judging seeks justice(G)
and speeds the cause of righteousness.
