Isaiah 29:20

Blessing After Punishment

¹⁹ The afflicted also will increase their gladness in the Lord,
And the needy of mankind will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
²⁰ For the ruthless will come to an end and the scorner will be finished,
Indeed all who are intent on doing evil will be cut off;
²¹ Who cause a person to be indicted by a word,
And ensnare him who adjudicates at the gate,
And defraud the one in the right with meaningless arguments.
