32:1. Behold a king shall reign in justice, and princes shall rule in
judgment.
32:2. And a man shall be as when one is hid from the wind, and hideth
himself from a storm, as rivers of waters in drought, and the shadow of
a rock that standeth out in a desert land.
32:3. The eyes of them that see shall not be dim, and the ears of them
that hear shall hearken diligently.
32:4. And the heart of fools shall understand knowledge, and the tongue
of stammerers shall speak readily and plain.
32:5. The fool shall no more be called prince: neither shall the
deceitful be called great:
32:6. For the fool will speak foolish things, and his heart will work
iniquity, to practise hypocrisy, and speak to the Lord deceitfully, and
to make empty the soul of the hungry, and take away drink from the
thirsty.
32:7. The vessels of the deceitful are most wicked: for he hath framed
devices to destroy the meek, with lying words, when the poor man
speaketh judgment.
32:8. But the prince will devise such things as are worthy of a prince,
and he shall stand above the rulers.
32:9. Rise up, ye rich women, and hear my voice: ye confident daughters,
give ear to my speech.
32:10. For after days and a year, you that are confident shall be
troubled: for the vintage is at an end, the gathering shall come no
more.
32:11. Be astonished, ye rich women, be troubled, ye confident ones:
strip you, and be confounded, gird your loins.
32:12. Mourn for your breasts, for the delightful country, for the
fruitful vineyard.
32:13. Upon the land of my people shall thorns and briers come up: how
much more upon all the houses of joy, of the city that rejoiced?
32:14. For the house is forsaken, the multitude of the city is left,
darkness and obscurity are come upon its dens for ever. A joy of wild
asses, the pastures of flocks.
32:15. Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high: and the desert
shall be as a charmel, and charmel shall be counted for a forest.
32:16. An judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and justice shall sit
in charmel.
32:17. And the work of justice shall be peace, and the service of
justice quietness, and security for ever.
32:18. And my people shall sit in the beauty of peace, and in the
tabernacles of confidence, and in wealthy rest.
32:19. But hail shall be in the descent of the forest, and the city
shall be made very low.
32:20. Blessed are ye that sow upon all waters, sending thither the foot
of the ox and the ass.
Isaias Chapter 33
God's revenge against the enemies of his church. The happiness of the
heavenly Jerusalem.
33:1. Woe to thee that spoilest, shalt not thou thyself also be spoiled?
and thou that despisest, shalt not thyself also be despised? when thou
shalt have made an end of spoiling, thou shalt be spoiled: when being
wearied thou shalt cease to despise, thou shalt be despised.
That spoilest, etc... This is particularly directed to Sennacherib.
33:2. O Lord, have mercy on us: for we have waited for thee: be thou our
arm in the morning, and our salvation in the time of trouble.
