Isaiah 29:16-20 Holy Bible: Easy-To-Read Version (ETR)

16. You turn things upside down. You think the clay is equal to the potter. You think that something that is made can tell the one who made it, “You did not make me!” This is like a pot telling its maker, “You know nothing.”

17. This is the truth: After a very short time, Lebanon will become rich farmland, and the farmland will be like thick forests.

18. The deaf will hear the words in the book. The blind will see through the darkness and fog.

19. The Lord will make poor people happy. The poorest people will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

20. This will happen when the people who are mean and cruel have come to an end. It will happen when those who enjoy doing bad things are gone.
