Isaiah 33:10-16
GOD’S WORD Translation
10 The Lord says, “Now I will arise.
Now I will get up.
Now I will be lifted up.”
11 You will be pregnant with hay.
You will give birth to straw.
Your breath will be a fire which will burn you up.
12 People will be cremated.
They will be set on fire like dry thornbushes.
13 Hear what I have done, you people who are far away!
Acknowledge my might, you people who are near!
14 The sinners in Zion are terrified.
Trembling seizes the ungodly.
Can any of us live through a fire that destroys?
Can any of us live through a fire that burns forever?
15 The person who does what is right and speaks the truth will live.
He rejects getting rich by extortion and refuses to take bribes.
He refuses to listen to those who are plotting murders.
He doesn’t look for evil things to do.
16 This person will live on high.
His stronghold will be a fortress made of rock.
He will have plenty of food
and a dependable supply of water.
