Isaiah 33:10-16
World English Bible
10 “Now I will arise,” says Yahweh.
“Now I will lift myself up.
Now I will be exalted.
11 You will conceive chaff.
You will give birth to stubble.
Your breath is a fire that will devour you.
12 The peoples will be like the burning of lime,
like thorns that are cut down and 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 ones.
Who among us can live with the devouring fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting burning?
15 He who walks righteously
and speaks blamelessly,
he who despises the gain of oppressions,
who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe,
who stops his ears from hearing of blood,
and shuts his eyes from looking at evil—
16 he will dwell on high.
His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks.
His bread will be supplied.
His waters will be sure.
Isaiah 33:10-16
New American Standard Bible
10 “Now (A)I will arise,” says the Lord,
“Now I will be exalted, now I will be lifted up.
11 You have (B)conceived [a]chaff, you will give birth to stubble;
[b]My (C)breath will consume you like a fire.
12 The peoples will be burned to lime,
(D)Like cut thorns which are burned in the fire.
13 “You who are far away, (E)hear what I have done;
And you who are near, [c]acknowledge My might.”
14 (F)Sinners in Zion are terrified;
(G)Trembling has seized the godless.
“Who among us can live with (H)the consuming fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting (I)burning?”
15 One who (J)walks righteously and speaks with integrity,
One who rejects [d]unjust gain
And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;
One who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed
And (K)shuts his eyes from looking at evil;
16 He will dwell on the heights,
(L)His refuge will be the [e]impregnable rock;
(M)His bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.
