11 “O (A)afflicted one, storm-tossed, and (B)not comforted,
Behold, I will lay your stones in antimony,
And your foundations I will (C)set in [a](D)sapphires.
12 Moreover, I will make your battlements of [b]rubies,
And your gates of [c]crystal,
And your entire [d]wall of [e]precious stones.
13 (E)All your sons will be [f]taught of Yahweh;
And the peace of your sons will be (F)great.
14 In (G)righteousness you will be established;
You will be far from (H)oppression, for you will (I)not fear,
And from (J)terror, for it will not come near you.
15 If anyone fiercely attacks you it will not be from Me.
(K)Whoever attacks you will fall because of you.
16 Behold, I Myself have created the craftsman who blows the fire of coals
And brings out a weapon for its work;
And I have created the bringer of ruin to wreak destruction.
17 (L)No weapon that is formed against you will succeed;
And (M)every tongue that [g]accuses you in judgment you will condemn.
This is the inheritance of the [h]slaves of Yahweh,
And their (N)righteousness is from Me,” declares Yahweh.
