Isaiah 30:15-17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
15 For thus said the Lord God,
the Holy One of Israel:
By waiting and by calm you shall be saved,
in quiet and in trust shall be your strength.
But this you did not will.(A)
16 “No,” you said,
“Upon horses we will flee.”
Very well, you shall flee!
“Upon swift steeds we will ride.”
Very well, swift shall be your pursuers!(B)
17 A thousand shall tremble at the threat of one—
if five threaten, you shall flee.
You will then be left like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
like a flag on a hill.(C)
Isaiah 30:15-17
New International Version
Isaiah 30:15-17
New International Version
15 This is what the Sovereign(A) Lord, the Holy One(B) of Israel, says:
“In repentance and rest(C) is your salvation,
in quietness and trust(D) is your strength,
but you would have none of it.(E)
16 You said, ‘No, we will flee(F) on horses.’(G)
Therefore you will flee!
You said, ‘We will ride off on swift horses.’
Therefore your pursuers will be swift!
17 A thousand will flee
at the threat of one;
at the threat of five(H)
you will all flee(I) away,
till you are left(J)
like a flagstaff on a mountaintop,
like a banner(K) on a hill.”
