Isaiah 54:11-17
Young's Literal Translation
11 O afflicted, storm-tossed, not comforted, Lo, I am laying with cement thy stones, And have founded thee with sapphires,
12 And have made of agate thy pinnacles, And thy gates of carbuncle stones, And all thy border of stones of delight,
13 And all thy sons are taught of Jehovah, And abundant [is] the peace of thy sons.
14 In righteousness thou establishest thyself, Be far from oppression, for thou fearest not, And from ruin, for it cometh not near unto thee.
15 Lo, he doth diligently assemble without My desire, Who hath assembled near thee? By thee he falleth!
16 Lo, I -- I have prepared an artizan, Blowing on a fire of coals, And bringing out an instrument for his work, And I have prepared a destroyer to destroy.
17 No weapon formed against thee prospereth, And every tongue rising against thee, In judgment thou condemnest. This [is] the inheritance of the servants of Jehovah, And their righteousness from me, an affirmation of Jehovah!

Isaiah 54:11-17
New International Version
11 “Afflicted(A) city, lashed by storms(B) and not comforted,(C)
I will rebuild you with stones of turquoise,[a](D)
your foundations(E) with lapis lazuli.(F)
12 I will make your battlements of rubies,
your gates(G) of sparkling jewels,
and all your walls of precious stones.
13 All your children will be taught by the Lord,(H)
and great will be their peace.(I)
14 In righteousness(J) you will be established:(K)
Tyranny(L) will be far from you;
you will have nothing to fear.(M)
Terror(N) will be far removed;
it will not come near you.
15 If anyone does attack you, it will not be my doing;
whoever attacks you will surrender(O) to you.
16 “See, it is I who created the blacksmith(P)
who fans the coals into flame
and forges a weapon(Q) fit for its work.
And it is I who have created the destroyer(R) to wreak havoc;
17 no weapon forged against you will prevail,(S)
and you will refute(T) every tongue that accuses you.
This is the heritage of the servants(U) of the Lord,
and this is their vindication(V) from me,”
declares the Lord.
