Isaiah 33:17-24 - The Glorious Future

¹⁷ Your eyes will see the King in His beauty;
They will behold a far-distant land.
¹⁸ Your heart will meditate on terror:
“Where is he who counts?
Where is he who weighs?
Where is he who counts the towers?”
¹⁹ You will no longer see a fierce people,
A people of unintelligible speech which no one comprehends,
Of a stammering tongue which no one understands.
²⁰ Look upon Zion, the city of our appointed feasts;
Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an undisturbed habitation,
A tent which will not be folded;
Its stakes will never be pulled up,
Nor any of its cords be torn apart.
²¹ But there the majestic One, the Lord, will be for us
A place of rivers and wide canals
On which no boat with oars will go,
And on which no mighty ship will pass—
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.
