Isaiah 33:10-16
English Standard Version
10 (A)“Now I will arise,” says the Lord,
“now I will lift myself up;
now I will be exalted.
11 (B)You conceive chaff; you give birth to stubble;
your breath is (C)a fire that will consume you.
12 And the peoples will be as if burned to lime,
(D)like thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.”
13 Hear, you who are far off, what I have done;
and you who are near, acknowledge my might.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid;
trembling has seized the godless:
(E)“Who among us can dwell (F)with the consuming fire?
Who among us can dwell with everlasting burnings?”
15 (G)He who walks righteously and speaks uprightly,
who despises the gain of oppressions,
who shakes his hands, lest they hold a bribe,
who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed
(H)and shuts his eyes from looking on evil,
16 he will dwell on the heights;
his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks;
(I)his bread will be given him; his water will be sure.
Isaiah 33:10-16
Lexham English Bible
10 “Now I will arise,” says Yahweh.
“Now I will lift myself up proudly;
now I will raise myself.
11 You conceive dry grass, you bring forth stubble;
your breath is a fire; it will consume you.
12 And the peoples will be burning to lime—
they are burned like thorns that have been cut down in the fire.
13 You who are far away, hear what I have done;
and you who are near, know my might!”
14 Sinners are afraid in Zion;
trembling has seized the godless:
“Who of us can live[a] with devouring fire?
Who of us can live[b] with everlasting consuming hearths?”
15 He who walks in righteousness
and speaks uprightness,
who rejects the gain of extortion,
who refuses[c] a bribe,
who stops up his ears[d] from hearing bloodshed[e]
and shuts his eyes from seeing evil.
16 That one will live on the heights;
the fortresses of rocks will be his refuge.
His food will be given;
his waters[f] will endure.
