Young's Literal Translation
Isaiah, Chapter 33

   1: Wo, spoiler! and thou not spoiled, And treacherous! and they dealt not treacherously with thee, When thou dost finish, O spoiler, thou art spoiled, When thou dost finish dealing treacherously, They deal treacherously with thee.
   2: O Jehovah, favour us, for thee we have waited, Be their arm, in the mornings, Yea, our salvation in time of adversity.
   3: From the voice of a multitude fled have peoples, From thine exaltation scattered have been nations.
   4: And gathered hath been your spoil, A gathering of the caterpillar, As a running to and fro of locusts is he running on it.
   5: Set on high is Jehovah, for He is dwelling on high, He filled Zion [with] judgment and righteousness,
   6: And hath been the stedfastness of thy times, The strength of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge, Fear of Jehovah -- it [is] His treasure.
   7: Lo, 'Their Ariel,' they have cried without, Messengers of peace do weep bitterly.
   8: Desolated have been highways, Ceased hath he who passeth along the path, He hath broken covenant, He hath despised enemies, He hath not esteemed a man.
   9: Mourned, languished hath the land, Confounded hath been Lebanon, Withered hath been Sharon as a wilderness, And shaking are Bashan and Carmel.
   10: Now, do I arise, saith Jehovah, Now I am exalted, now I am lifted up.
   11: Ye conceive chaff, ye bear stubble, Your spirit! -- fire devoureth you.
   12: And peoples have been [as] burnings of lime, Thorns, as sweepings, with fire they burn.
   13: Hear, ye far off, that which I have done, And know, ye near ones, My might.
   14: Afraid in Zion have been sinners, Seized hath trembling the profane: Who doth dwell for us -- consuming fire, Who doth dwell for us -- burnings of the age?
   15: Whoso is walking righteously, And is speaking uprightly, Kicking against gain of oppressions, Shaking his hands from taking hold on a bribe, Stopping his ear from hearing of blood, And shutting his eyes from looking on evil,
   16: He high places doth inhabit, Strongholds of rock [are] his high tower, His bread hath been given, his waters stedfast.
   17: A king in his beauty, see do thine eyes, They see a land afar off.
   18: Thy heart doth meditate terror, Where [is] he who is counting? Where [is] he who is weighing? Where [is] he who is counting the towers?
   19: The strong people thou seest not, A people deeper of lip than to be understood, Of a scorned tongue, there is no understanding.
   20: See Zion, the city of our meetings, Thine eyes see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, A tent not taken down, Not removed are its pins for ever, And none of its cords are broken.
   21: But there mighty [is] Jehovah for us, A place of rivers -- streams broad of sides, No ship with oars doth go into it, And a mighty ship doth not pass over it.
   22: For Jehovah our judge, Jehovah our lawgiver, Jehovah our king -- He doth save us.
   23: Left have been thy ropes, They strengthen not rightly their mast, They have not spread out a sail, Then apportioned hath been a prey of much spoil, The lame have taken spoil.
   24: Nor doth an inhabitant say, 'I was sick,' The people that is dwelling in it, is forgiven of iniquity!
