Isaiah 54:11-17
Legacy Standard Bible
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.

Revised Standard Version
11 “O afflicted one, storm-tossed, and not comforted,
behold, I will set your stones in antimony,
and lay your foundations with sapphires.[a]
12 I will make your pinnacles of agate,
your gates of carbuncles,
and all your wall of precious stones.
13 All your sons shall be taught by the Lord,
and great shall be the prosperity of your sons.
14 In righteousness you shall be established;
you shall be far from oppression, for you shall not fear;
and from terror, for it shall not come near you.
15 If any one stirs up strife,
it is not from me;
whoever stirs up strife with you
shall fall because of you.
16 Behold, I have created the smith
who blows the fire of coals,
and produces a weapon for its purpose.
I have also created the ravager to destroy;
17 no weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper,
and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord
and their vindication from me, says the Lord.”
