The King James Version Bible

Isaiah 33:18-24

  1. Thine heart shall meditate terror. Where is the scribe? where is the receiver? where is he that counted the towers?

  2. Thou shalt not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive; of a stammering tongue, that thou canst not understand.

  3. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tabernacle that shall not be taken down; not one of the stakes thereof shall ever be removed, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.

  4. But there the glorious LORD will be unto us a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.

  5. For the LORD is our judge, the LORD is our lawgiver, the LORD is our king; he will save us.

  6. Thy tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.

  7. And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
