11 O afflicted one, tossed with tempest and not comforted,
    I will lay your stones with fair colors
    and lay your foundations with sapphires.
12 I will make your windows of agates,
    and your gates of crystal,
    and all your borders of precious stones.
13 All your sons shall be taught of the Lord,
    and great shall be the peace 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 Indeed they shall surely assail you fiercely, but not from Me.
    Whoever assails you shall fall for your sake.

16 See, I have created the smith
    that blows the coals in the fire
    and who brings forth an instrument for his work;
and I have created the destroyer in order to cause ruin.
17     No weapon that is formed against you shall prosper,
    and every tongue that shall rise against you in judgment, you shall condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
    and their vindication is from Me,
    says the Lord.

11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted,
behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours,
and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
12 And I will make thy windows of agates,
and thy gates of carbuncles,
and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
13 And all thy children shall be taught of the Lord;
and great shall be the peace of thy children.
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established:
thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear:
and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me:
whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
16 Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire,
and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work;
and I have created the waster to destroy.
17 No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper;
and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn.
This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,
and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.
