Isaiah 33:1-4
Legacy Standard Bible
The King in His Beauty
33 Woe (A)to you, O destroyer,
While you were not destroyed;
And he (B)who is treacherous, while others did not deal treacherously with him.
As soon as you finish destroying, (C)you will be destroyed;
As soon as you cease to deal treacherously, others will (D)deal treacherously with you.
2 O Yahweh, (E)be gracious to us; we have (F)hoped in You.
Be [a]their [b](G)strength every morning,
Our salvation also in the (H)time of distress.
3 At the sound of the tumult (I)peoples flee;
At the (J)lifting up of Yourself nations scatter.
4 Your spoil is gathered as the caterpillar gathers;
As locusts rushing about men rush about on it.

New King James Version
A Prayer in Deep Distress
33 Woe to you (A)who plunder, though you have not been plundered;
And you who deal treacherously, though they have not dealt treacherously with you!
(B)When you cease plundering,
You will be (C)plundered;
When you make an end of dealing treacherously,
They will deal treacherously with you.
2 O Lord, be gracious to us;
(D)We have waited for You.
Be [a]their arm every morning,
Our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3 At the noise of the tumult the people (E)shall flee;
When You lift Yourself up, the nations shall be scattered;
4 And Your plunder shall be gathered
Like the gathering of the caterpillar;
As the running to and fro of locusts,
He shall run upon them.
