Isaiah 16:4-6
New King James Version
4 Let My outcasts dwell with you, O Moab;
Be a shelter to them from the face of the [a]spoiler.
For the extortioner is at an end,
Devastation ceases,
The oppressors are consumed out of the land.
5 In mercy (A)the throne will be established;
And One will sit on it in truth, in the tabernacle of David,
(B)Judging and seeking justice and hastening (C)righteousness.”
6 We have heard of the (D)pride of Moab—
He is very proud—
Of his haughtiness and his pride and his wrath;
(E)But his [b]lies shall not be so.
