Isaiah 33:19-21
Lexham English Bible
Isaiah 33:19-21
Lexham English Bible
19 You will not see the insolent people,
the people whose language is too obscure to understand,[a]
whose stammering of tongue cannot be understood.[b]
20 Look on Zion, the city of our appointed festivals!
Your eyes will see Jerusalem,
an undisturbed settlement,
a tent that is not moved.[c]
No one will ever pull out its tent pegs,
and none of its ropes will be torn in two.
21 Rather, there Yahweh will be mighty for us,
a place of rivers and broad streams,[d]
a galley ship with[e] oars[f] cannot go in it,
and a mighty ship cannot pass through it.

New International Version
19 You will see those arrogant people(A) no more,
people whose speech is obscure,
whose language is strange and incomprehensible.(B)
20 Look on Zion,(C) the city of our festivals;
your eyes will see Jerusalem,
a peaceful abode,(D) a tent(E) that will not be moved;(F)
its stakes will never be pulled up,
nor any of its ropes broken.
21 There the Lord will be our Mighty(G) One.
It will be like a place of broad rivers and streams.(H)
No galley with oars will ride them,
no mighty ship(I) will sail them.

King James Version
Isaiah 33:19-21
King James Version
19 Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.
20 Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
21 But there the glorious Lord will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
