## Text

[1] Woe to you, O destroyer never destroyed,
O traitor never betrayed!
When you have finished destroying,
you will be destroyed.
When you have finished betraying,
you will be betrayed. [2] O LORD, be gracious to us!
We wait for You.
Be our strength every morning
and our salvation in time of trouble. [3] The peoples flee the thunder of Your voice;
the nations scatter when You rise. [4] Your spoil, O nations, is gathered as by locusts;
like a swarm of locusts men sweep over it. [5] The LORD is exalted, for He dwells on high;
He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness. [6] He will be the sure foundation for your times,
a storehouse of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge.
The fear of the LORD is Zion’s treasure. [7] Behold, their valiant ones cry aloud in the streets;
the envoys of peace weep bitterly. [8] The highways are deserted;
travel has ceased.
The treaty has been broken,
the witnesses are despised,
and human life is disregarded. [9] The land mourns and languishes;
Lebanon is ashamed and decayed.
Sharon is like a desert;
Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves. [10] “Now I will arise,” says the LORD.
“Now I will lift Myself up. Now I will be exalted. [11] You conceive chaff; you give birth to stubble.
Your breath is a fire that will consume you. [12] The peoples will be burned to ashes,
like thorns cut down and set ablaze. [13] You who are far off, hear what I have done;
you who are near, acknowledge My might.” [14] The sinners in Zion are afraid;
trembling grips the ungodly:
“Who of us can dwell with a consuming fire?
Who of us can dwell with everlasting flames?” [15] He who walks righteously
and speaks with sincerity,
who refuses gain from extortion,
whose hand never takes a bribe,
who stops his ears against murderous plots
and shuts his eyes tightly against evil— [16] he will dwell on the heights;
the mountain fortress will be his refuge;
his food will be provided
and his water assured. [17] Your eyes will see the King in His beauty
and behold a land that stretches afar. [18] Your mind will ponder the former terror:
“Where is he who tallies? Where is he who weighs?
Where is he who counts the towers?” [19] You will no longer see the insolent,
a people whose speech is unintelligible,
who stammer in a language you cannot understand. [20] Look upon Zion,
the city of our appointed feasts.
Your eyes will see Jerusalem,
a peaceful pasture, a tent that does not wander;
its tent pegs will not be pulled up,
nor will any of its cords be broken. [21] But there the Majestic One, our LORD,
will be for us a place of rivers and wide canals,
where no galley with oars will row,
and no majestic vessel will pass. [22] For the LORD is our Judge,
the LORD is our lawgiver,
the LORD is our King.
It is He who will save us. [23] Your ropes are slack;
they cannot secure the mast or spread the sail.
Then an abundance of spoils will be divided,
and even the lame will carry off plunder. [24] And no resident of Zion will say, “I am sick.”
The people who dwell there
will be forgiven of iniquity.
