Isaiah 29:17-24 - Blessing After Punishment
17 Is it not yet a very little while, And Lebanon shall be turned, into garden land, - And garden land, for a forest, be reckoned? 18 Therefore, in that day, shall the deaf hear the words of a book, - And out of gloom and darkness, the eyes of the blind shall see; 19 And again shall the humbled in Yahweh, have joy, - And the needy of mankind in the Holy One of Israel, exult; 20 For the tyrant, hath vanished, And the scoffer, is no more, Yea cut off are all who watch for iniquity: - 21 Who bring a man into condemnation with a rumour, And for him that decideth in the gate, lay a snare, - And have driven away, for a thing of nought, one who was righteous.
22 Therefore, Thus, saith Yahweh, concerning the house of Jacob, even he saith it who redeemed Abraham, - Not now, shall, Jacob turn pale, And, not now, shall their faces whiten; 23 For, when he seeth his children the work of my hands, in his midst, They will hallow my Name, - Yea they will hallow the Holy One of Jacob, And the God of Israel, will they regard with awe. 24 Then will they who erred in spirit comprehend, And the murmurers, accept instruction.
