Revised Version 1885

Isaiah 33:15-20 Revised Version 1885 (RV1885)

15. He that walketh righteously, and speaketh uprightly; he that despiseth the gain of oppressions, that shaketh his hands from holding of bribes, that stoppeth his ears from hearing of blood, and shutteth his eyes from looking upon evil;

16. He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: his bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

17. Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty: they shall behold a far stretching land.

18. Thine heart shall muse on the terror: where is he that counted, where is he that weighed the tribute? where is he that counted the towers?

19. Thou shalt not see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that thou canst not perceive; of a strange tongue that thou canst not understand.

20. Look upon Zion, the city of our solemnities: thine eyes shall see Jerusalem a quiet habitation, a tent that shall not be removed, the stakes whereof shall never be plucked up, neither shall any of the cords thereof be broken.
