Isaiah 33:10-16
International Children’s Bible
10 The Lord says, “Now, I will stand up
and show my greatness.
Now, I will become important to the people.
11 You people do useless things.
These things are like hay and straw.
A destructive wind will burn you like fire.
12 People will be burned until their bones become like lime.
They will burn quickly like dry thornbushes.”
13 You people in faraway lands, hear what I have done.
You people who are near me, learn about my power.
14 The sinners in Jerusalem are afraid.
The people who are separated from God shake with fear.
They say, “Can any of us live through this fire that destroys?
Who can live near this fire that burns on and on?”
15 A person might do what is right.
He might speak what is right.
He might refuse to take money unfairly.
He might refuse to take money to hurt others.
He might not listen to plans of murder.
He might refuse to think about evil.
16 This is the kind of person who will be safe.
He will be protected as he would be in a high, walled city.
He will always have bread,
and he will not run out of water.

New International Version
Isaiah 33:10-16
New International Version
10 “Now will I arise,(A)” says the Lord.
“Now will I be exalted;(B)
now will I be lifted up.
11 You conceive(C) chaff,
you give birth(D) to straw;
your breath is a fire(E) that consumes you.
12 The peoples will be burned to ashes;(F)
like cut thornbushes(G) they will be set ablaze.(H)”
13 You who are far away,(I) hear(J) what I have done;
you who are near, acknowledge my power!
14 The sinners(K) in Zion are terrified;
trembling(L) grips the godless:
“Who of us can dwell with the consuming fire?(M)
Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning?”
15 Those who walk righteously(N)
and speak what is right,(O)
who reject gain from extortion(P)
and keep their hands from accepting bribes,(Q)
who stop their ears against plots of murder
and shut their eyes(R) against contemplating evil—
16 they are the ones who will dwell on the heights,(S)
whose refuge(T) will be the mountain fortress.(U)
Their bread will be supplied,
and water will not fail(V) them.
