He saw also, that there was no man which had pity thereof, or was grieved at it. And he held him by his own power, and cleaved to his own righteousness. He put righteousness upon him for a breastplate, and set the helmet of health upon his head. He put on wrath instead of clothing, and took jealousy about him for a cloak: read more.

For he shall come as a violent water stream, which the wind of the LORD hath moved. But unto Zion there shall come a redeemer, and unto them in Jacob that turn from wickedness, sayeth the LORD.
