ULT ISA Chapter 32

◄ ISA 32 ► ║ ©

32 Behold, a king will reign in righteousness,

and princes will rule in justice.

2 And each will be like a shelter from the wind

and a refuge from the storm,

like streams of water in the desert,

like the shade of a great rock in a weary land.

3 Then the eyes of onlookers will not be dim,

and the ears of hearers will listen closely.

4 And the heart of the hasty will understand knowledge,

and the tongue of stutterers will hasten to speak clearly.

5 The fool will no longer be called honorable,

and will not be said of the deceiver “noble.”

6 For the fool speaks folly,

and his heart does sin.

Doing wickedness,

and speaking error against Yahweh.

He makes the hungry appetite empty,

and the thirsty he causes to lack drink.

7 And the deceiver, his methods are evil.

He plans wickedness

to ruin the poor with sayings of falsehood,

even when the poor speak justice.

8 But the honorable plans noble deeds;

and he, because of noble deeds, will stand.

9 Haughty women, rise up,

listen to my voice;

carefree daughters,

give ear to my words.

10 In just days upon a year,

confidence will falter,

for the grape harvest is ended;

the harvest will not come.

11 Tremble, haughty women;

quake, confident ones;

strip and bare yourselves;

and gird sackcloth on your waists.

12 Beat on your breasts for the pleasant fields,

for the fruitful vines.

13 On the land of my people

are overgrown thorns and briers,

even in all the joyful houses

of the city of revelry.

14 For the palace will be forsaken,

the crowded city will be deserted;

the hill and the watchtower will one after another become caves to eternity,

a delight of wild donkeys, a pasture of flocks;

15 until the Spirit is poured on us from on high,

and the wilderness becomes an orchard,

and the orchard is considered as a forest.

16 Then justice will reside in the wilderness;

and righteousness will live in the orchard.

17 And the work of righteousness will be peace;

and the service of righteousness, quietness and confidence to eternity.

18 And my people will live in a peaceful habitation

and in secure homes,

and in quiet resting places.

19 And it will hail when the forest comes down,

and the city will be completely annihilated. 20 You will be blessed, who sow beside every stream,

who send out freely the ox and the donkey.
