Isaiah 33:23

God Will Protect Jerusalem

²² For the Lord is our judge,
The Lord is our lawgiver,
The Lord is our king;
He will save us—
²³ Your tackle hangs slack;
It cannot hold the base of its mast firmly,
Nor spread out the sail.
Then the prey of an abundant spoil will be divided;
The lame will take the plunder.
²⁴ And no resident will say, “I am sick”;
The people who dwell there will be forgiven their iniquity.
