Isaiah 16:4-6
International Children’s Bible
4 Let those of us who were forced out of Moab live in your land.
Hide us from our enemies.”
The robbing of Moab will stop.
The enemy will be defeated.
The men who hurt others will disappear from the land.
5 Then a new loyal king will come.
This faithful king will be from the family of David.
He will judge fairly.
He wants to do what is right.
6 We have heard that the people of Moab are proud
and very conceited.
They are very proud and angry.
But their bragging means nothing.
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.
