Isaiah 33:10-16
New American Standard Bible
10 “Now (A)I will arise,” says the Lord,
“Now I will be exalted, now I will be lifted up.
11 You have (B)conceived [a]chaff, you will give birth to stubble;
[b]My (C)breath will consume you like a fire.
12 The peoples will be burned to lime,
(D)Like cut thorns which are burned in the fire.
13 “You who are far away, (E)hear what I have done;
And you who are near, [c]acknowledge My might.”
14 (F)Sinners in Zion are terrified;
(G)Trembling has seized the godless.
“Who among us can live with (H)the consuming fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting (I)burning?”
15 One who (J)walks righteously and speaks with integrity,
One who rejects [d]unjust gain
And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;
One who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed
And (K)shuts his eyes from looking at evil;
16 He will dwell on the heights,
(L)His refuge will be the [e]impregnable rock;
(M)His bread will be given him,
His water will be sure.

Revised Standard Version
10 “Now I will arise,” says the Lord,
“now I will lift myself up;
now I will be exalted.
11 You conceive chaff, you bring forth stubble;
your breath is a fire that will consume you.
12 And the peoples will be as if burned to lime,
like thorns cut down, that are burned in the fire.”
13 Hear, you who are far off, what I have done;
and you who are near, acknowledge my might.
14 The sinners in Zion are afraid;
trembling has seized the godless:
“Who among us can dwell with the devouring fire?
Who among us can dwell with everlasting burnings?”
15 He who walks righteously and speaks uprightly,
who despises the gain of oppressions,
who shakes his hands, lest they hold a bribe,
who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed
and shuts his eyes from looking upon evil,
16 he will dwell on the heights;
his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks;
his bread will be given him, his water will be sure.
