Isaiah 33
33
1Woe to youi that spoil (plunder; prey; booty), and youi [were] not spoiled; and deal treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with youi! when youi shall cease to spoil (plunder; prey; booty), youi shall be spoiled; [and] when youi shall make an end to deal treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with youi.
2O Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate), be gracious unto us; we have waited for youi: be youi their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3At the noise of the tumult the people fled; at the lifting up of yourself the nations were scattered.
4And your spoil (plunder; prey; booty) shall be gathered [like] the gathering of the caterpillar: as the running to and fro of locusts shall he run upon them.
5The Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) is exalted; for he dwells on high: he has filled Tziyon [parched place] with judgment and righteousness.
6And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of youri times, [and] strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [is] his treasure.
7Behold, their valiant ones shall cry without: the ambassadors of peace shall weep bitterly.
8The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceases: he has broken the covenant, he has despised the cities, he regards no man.
9The earth mourns [and] languishes: L’vanon [Whiteness] is ashamed [and] cut down: Sharon [a plain] is like a wilderness; and Bashan [Fruitful] and Carmel [Garden-land] shake off [their fruits].
10Now will I rise, says the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate); now will I be exalted; now will I lift up myself.
11You2f shall conceive chaff, you2f shall bring forth stubble: your breath, [as] fire, shall devour you.
12And the people shall be [as] the burnings of lime: [as] thorns cut up shall they be burned in the fire.
13Hear, you2f [that are] far off, what I have done; and, you2f [that are] near, acknowledge my might.
14The sinners in Tziyon [parched place] are afraid; fearfulness has surprised the hypocrites. Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?
15He that walks righteously, and speaks uprightly; he that despises the gain of oppressions, that shakes his hands from holding of bribes, that stops his ears from hearing of blood, and shuts his eyes from seeing evil;
16He shall dwell on high: his place of defense [shall be] the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters [shall be] sure.
17Your1s eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off.
18Your1s heart shall meditate terror. Where [is] the scribe? where [is] the receiver? where [is] he that counted the towers?
19youi shall not see a fierce people, a people of a deeper speech than youi can perceive; of a stammering tongue, [that youi can] not understand.
20Look upon Tziyon [parched place], the city of our solemnities: youri eyes shall see Yerushalayim [Foundation of Peace] 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.
21But there the glorious Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [will be] unto us a place of broad rivers [and] streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
22For the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [is] our judge, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [is] our lawgiver, the Lord-Yehōvah (Messiah Pre-Incarnate) [is] our king; he will save us.
23Your1s tacklings are loosed; they could not well strengthen their mast, they could not spread the sail: then is the prey of a great spoil (plunder; prey; booty) divided; the lame take the prey.
24And the inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people that dwell in it [shall be] forgiven [their] iniquity.

Isaiah 33
33
1Woe to you who destroy, but you weren’t destroyed,
and who betray, but nobody betrayed you!
When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed;
and when you have finished betrayal, you will be betrayed.
2Yahweh, be gracious to us. We have waited for you.
Be our strength every morning,
our salvation also in the time of trouble.
3At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled.
When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.
4Your plunder will be gathered as the caterpillar gathers.
Men will leap on it as locusts leap.
5Yahweh is exalted, for he dwells on high.
He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
6There will be stability in your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge.
The fear of Yahweh is your treasure.
7Behold, their valiant ones cry outside;
the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
8The highways are desolate.
The traveling man ceases.
The covenant is broken.
He has despised the cities.
He doesn’t respect man.
9The land mourns and languishes.
Lebanon is confounded and withers away.
Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.
10“Now I will arise,” says Yahweh.
“Now I will lift myself up.
Now I will be exalted.
11You will conceive chaff.
You will give birth to stubble.
Your breath is a fire that will devour you.
12The peoples will be like the burning of lime,
like thorns that are cut down and burned in the fire.
13Hear, you who are far off, what I have done;
and, you who are near, acknowledge my might.”
14The sinners in Zion are afraid.
Trembling has seized the godless ones.
Who among us can live with the devouring fire?
Who among us can live with everlasting burning?
15He who walks righteously
and speaks blamelessly,
he who despises the gain of oppressions,
who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe,
who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed,
and shuts his eyes from looking at evil—
16he will dwell on high.
His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks.
His bread will be supplied.
His waters will be sure.
17Your eyes will see the king in his beauty.
They will see a distant land.
18Your heart will meditate on the terror.
Where is he who counted?
Where is he who weighed?
Where is he who counted the towers?
19You will no longer see the fierce people,
a people of a deep speech that you can’t comprehend,
with a strange language that you can’t understand.
20Look at Zion, the city of our appointed festivals.
Your eyes will see Jerusalem, a quiet habitation,
a tent that won’t be removed.
Its stakes will never be plucked up,
nor will any of its cords be broken.
21But there Yahweh will be with us in majesty,
a place of wide rivers and streams,
in which no galley with oars will go,
neither will any gallant ship pass by there.
22For Yahweh is our judge.
Yahweh is our lawgiver.
Yahweh is our king.
He will save us.
23Your rigging is untied.
They couldn’t strengthen the foot of their mast.
They couldn’t spread the sail.
Then the prey of a great plunder was divided.
The lame took the prey.
24The inhabitant won’t say, “I am sick.”
The people who dwell therein will be forgiven their iniquity.
