Isaiah 57:13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
13 [a]When you cry out,
let your collection of idols save you.
All these the wind shall carry off,
a mere breath shall bear them away;
But whoever takes refuge in me shall inherit the land,
and possess my holy mountain.
Obadiah 17
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
17 But on Mount Zion there will be some who escape;[a]
the mountain will be holy,
And the house of Jacob will take possession
of those who dispossessed them.(A)
