Isaiah 33 (WEBP)
[1] Woe to you who destroy, but you weren’t destroyed, and who betray, but nobody betrayed you! When you have finished destroying, you will be destroyed; and when you have finished betrayal, you will be betrayed.
[2] Yahweh, be gracious to us. We have waited for you. Be our strength every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.
[3] At the noise of the thunder, the peoples have fled. When you lift yourself up, the nations are scattered.
[4] Your plunder will be gathered as the caterpillar gathers. Men will leap on it as locusts leap.
[5] Yahweh is exalted, for he dwells on high. He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
[6] There will be stability in your times, abundance of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge. The fear of Yahweh is your treasure.
[7] Behold, their valiant ones cry outside; the ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
[8] The highways are desolate. The traveling man ceases. The covenant is broken. He has despised the cities. He doesn’t respect man.
[9] The land mourns and languishes. Lebanon is confounded and withers away. Sharon is like a desert, and Bashan and Carmel are stripped bare.
[10] “Now I will arise,” says Yahweh. “Now I will lift myself up. Now I will be exalted.
[11] You will conceive chaff. You will give birth to stubble. Your breath is a fire that will devour you.
[12] The peoples will be like the burning of lime, like thorns that are cut down and burned in the fire.
[13] Hear, you who are far off, what I have done; and, you who are near, acknowledge my might.”
[14] The sinners in Zion are afraid. Trembling has seized the godless ones. Who among us can live with the devouring fire? Who among us can live with everlasting burning?
[15] He who walks righteously and speaks blamelessly, he who despises the gain of oppressions, who gestures with his hands, refusing to take a bribe, who stops his ears from hearing of bloodshed, and shuts his eyes from looking at evil—
[16] he will dwell on high. His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks. His bread will be supplied. His waters will be sure.
[17] Your eyes will see the king in his beauty. They will see a distant land.
[18] Your heart will meditate on the terror. Where is he who counted? Where is he who weighed? Where is he who counted the towers?
[19] You will no longer see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that you can’t comprehend, with a strange language that you can’t understand.
[20] Look at Zion, the city of our appointed festivals. Your eyes will see Jerusalem, a quiet habitation, a tent that won’t be removed. Its stakes will never be plucked up, nor will any of its cords be broken.
[21] But there Yahweh will be with us in majesty, a place of wide rivers and streams, in which no galley with oars will go, neither will any gallant ship pass by there.
[22] For Yahweh is our judge. Yahweh is our lawgiver. Yahweh is our king. He will save us.
[23] Your rigging is untied. They couldn’t strengthen the foot of their mast. They couldn’t spread the sail. Then the prey of a great plunder was divided. The lame took the prey.
[24] The inhabitant won’t say, “I am sick.” The people who dwell therein will be forgiven their iniquity.

Isaiah 33 (KJVS)
[1] Woe H1945 to thee that spoilest, H7703 (QalActPtc) and thou wast not spoiled; H7703 (QalPasPtc) and dealest treacherously, H898 (QalActPtc) and they dealt not treacherously H898 (QalPerf) with thee! when thou shalt cease H8552 (HiphInf) to spoil, H7703 (QalActPtc) thou shalt be spoiled; H7703 (HophImpf) and when thou shalt make an end H5239 (HiphInf) to deal treacherously, H898 (QalInf) they shall deal treacherously H898 (QalImpf) with thee.
[2] O Lord, H3068 be gracious H2603 (QalImpv) unto us; we have waited H6960 (PielPerf) for thee: be thou their arm H2220 every morning, H1242 our salvation H3444 also in the time H6256 of trouble. H6869
[3] At the noise H6963 of the tumult H1995 the people H5971 fled; H5074 (QalPerf) at the lifting up H7427 of thyself the nations H1471 were scattered. H5310 (QalPerf)
[4] And your spoil H7998 shall be gathered H622 (PualPerf) like the gathering H625 of the caterpiller: H2625 as the running to and fro H4944 of locusts H1357 shall he run H8264 (QalActPtc) upon them.
[5] The Lord H3068 is exalted; H7682 (NiphPtc) for he dwelleth H7931 (QalActPtc) on high: H4791 he hath filled H4390 (PielPerf) Zion H6726 with judgment H4941 and righteousness. H6666
[6] And wisdom H2451 and knowledge H1847 shall be the stability H530 of thy times, H6256 and strength H2633 of salvation:§ H3444 the fear H3374 of the Lord H3068 is his treasure. H214
[7] Behold, their valiant ones§ H691 shall cry H6817 (QalPerf) without: H2351 the ambassadors H4397 of peace H7965 shall weep H1058 (QalImpf) bitterly. H4751
[8] The highways H4546 lie waste, H8074 (NiphPerf) the wayfaring man H5674 (QalActPtc) H734 ceaseth: H7673 (QalPerf) he hath broken H6565 (HiphPerf) the covenant, H1285 he hath despised H3988 (QalPerf) the cities, H5892 he regardeth H2803 (QalPerf) no man. H582
[9] The earth H776 mourneth H56 (QalPerf) and languisheth: H535 (PulaPerf) Lebanon H3844 is ashamed H2659 (HiphPerf) and hewn down: H7060 (QalPerf) Sharon H8289 is like a wilderness; H6160 and Bashan H1316 and Carmel H3760 shake off H5287 (QalActPtc) their fruits.
[10] Now will I rise, H6965 (QalImpf) saith H559 (QalImpf) the Lord; H3068 now will I be exalted; H7426 (NiphImpf) now will I lift up H5375 (NiphImpf) myself.
[11] Ye shall conceive H2029 (QalImpf) chaff, H2842 ye shall bring forth H3205 (QalImpf) stubble: H7179 your breath, H7307 as fire, H784 shall devour H398 (QalImpf) you.
[12] And the people H5971 shall be as the burnings H4955 of lime: H7875 as thorns H6975 cut up H3683 (QalPasPtc) shall they be burned H3341 (QalImpf) in the fire. H784
[13] Hear, H8085 (QalImpv) ye that are far off, H7350 what I have done; H6213 (QalPerf) and, ye that are near, H7138 acknowledge H3045 (QalImpv) my might. H1369
[14] The sinners H2400 in Zion H6726 are afraid; H6342 (QalPerf) fearfulness H7461 hath surprised H270 (QalPerf) the hypocrites. H2611 Who among us shall dwell H1481 (QalImpf) with the devouring H398 (QalActPtc) fire? H784 who among us shall dwell H1481 (QalImpf) with everlasting H5769 burnings? H4168
[15] He that walketh H1980 (QalActPtc) righteously,§ H6666 and speaketh H1696 (QalActPtc) uprightly;§ H4339 he that despiseth H3988 (QalActPtc) the gain H1215 of oppressions, H4642 that shaketh H5287 (QalActPtc) his hands H3709 from holding H8551 (QalInf) of bribes, H7810 that stoppeth H331 (QalPtc) his ears H241 from hearing H8085 (QalInf) of blood,§ H1818 and shutteth H6105 (QalActPtc) his eyes H5869 from seeing H7200 (QalInf) evil; H7451
[16] he shall dwell H7931 (QalImpf) on high:§ H4791 his place of defence H4869 shall be the munitions H4679 of rocks: H5553 bread H3899 shall be given H5414 (NiphPtc) him; his waters H4325 shall be sure. H539 (NiphPtc)
[17] Thine eyes H5869 shall see H2372 (QalImpf) the king H4428 in his beauty: H3308 they shall behold H7200 (QalImpf) the land H776 that is very far off.§ H4801
[18] Thine heart H3820 shall meditate H1897 (QalImpf) terror. H367 Where is the scribe? H5608 (QalActPtc) where is the receiver?§ H8254 (QalActPtc) where is he that counted H5608 (QalActPtc) the towers? H4026
[19] Thou shalt not see H7200 (QalImpf) a fierce H3267 (NiphPtc) people, H5971 a people H5971 of a deeper H6012 speech H8193 than thou canst perceive; H8085 (QalInf) of a stammering§ H3932 (NiphPtc) tongue, H3956 that thou canst not understand. H998
[20] Look H2372 (QalImpv) upon Zion, H6726 the city H7151 of our solemnities: H4150 thine eyes H5869 shall see H7200 (QalImpf) Jerusalem H3389 a quiet H7600 habitation, H5116 a tabernacle H168 that shall not be taken down; H6813 (QalImpf) not one of the stakes H3489 thereof shall ever H5331 be removed, H5265 (QalImpf) neither shall any of the cords H2256 thereof be broken. H5423 (NiphImpf)
[21] But there the glorious H117 Lord H3068 will be unto us a place H4725 of broad H7342 H3027 rivers H5104 and streams;§ H2975 wherein shall go H3212 (QalImpf) no H1077 galley H590 with oars, H7885 neither shall gallant H117 ship H6716 pass H5674 (QalImpf) thereby.
[22] For the Lord H3068 is our judge, H8199 (QalActPtc) the Lord H3068 is our lawgiver,§ H2710 (PoelPtc) the Lord H3068 is our king; H4428 he will save H3467 (HiphImpf) us.
[23] Thy tacklings H2256 are loosed;§ H5203 (NiphPerf) they could not well H3653 strengthen H2388 (PielImpf) their mast, H8650 they could not spread H6566 (QalPerf) the sail: H5251 then is the prey H5706 of a great H4766 spoil H7998 divided; H2505 (PualPerf) the lame H6455 take H962 (QalPerf) the prey. H957
[24] And the inhabitant H7934 shall not say, H559 (QalImpf) I am sick: H2470 (QalPerf) the people H5971 that dwell H3427 (QalActPtc) therein shall be forgiven H5375 (QalPasPtc) their iniquity. H5771

Isaiah 33 (BYZ)
[1] ουαι τοις ταλαιπωρουσιν υμας υμας δε ουδεις ποιει ταλαιπωρους και ο αθετων υμας ουκ αθετει αλωσονται οι αθετουντες και παραδοθησονται και ως σης επι ιματιου ουτως ηττηθησονται
[2] κυριε ελεησον ημας επι σοι γαρ πεποιθαμεν εγενηθη το σπερμα των απειθουντων εις απωλειαν η δε σωτηρια ημων εν καιρω θλιψεως
[3] δια φωνην του φοβου σου εξεστησαν λαοι απο του φοβου σου και διεσπαρησαν τα εθνη
[4] νυν δε συναχθησεται τα σκυλα υμων μικρου και μεγαλου ον τροπον εαν τις συναγαγη ακριδας ουτως εμπαιξουσιν υμιν
[5] αγιος ο θεος ο κατοικων εν υψηλοις ενεπλησθη σιων κρισεως και δικαιοσυνης
[6] εν νομω παραδοθησονται εν θησαυροις η σωτηρια ημων εκει σοφια και επιστημη και ευσεβεια προς τον κυριον ουτοι εισιν θησαυροι δικαιοσυνης
[7] ιδου δη εν τω φοβω υμων αυτοι φοβηθησονται ους εφοβεισθε φοβηθησονται αφ υμων αγγελοι γαρ αποσταλησονται αξιουντες ειρηνην πικρως κλαιοντες παρακαλουντες ειρηνην
[8] ερημωθησονται γαρ αι τουτων οδοι πεπαυται ο φοβος των εθνων και η προς τουτους διαθηκη αιρεται και ου μη λογισησθε αυτους ανθρωπους
[9] επενθησεν η γη ησχυνθη ο λιβανος ελη εγενετο ο σαρων φανερα εσται η γαλιλαια και ο καρμηλος
[10] νυν αναστησομαι λεγει κυριος νυν δοξασθησομαι νυν υψωθησομαι
[11] νυν οψεσθε νυν αισθηθησεσθε ματαια εσται η ισχυς του πνευματος υμων πυρ υμας κατεδεται
[12] και εσονται εθνη κατακεκαυμενα ως ακανθα εν αγρω ερριμμενη και κατακεκαυμενη
[13] ακουσονται οι πορρωθεν α εποιησα γνωσονται οι εγγιζοντες την ισχυν μου
[14] απεστησαν οι εν σιων ανομοι λημψεται τρομος τους ασεβεις τις αναγγελει υμιν οτι πυρ καιεται τις αναγγελει υμιν τον τοπον τον αιωνιον
[15] πορευομενος εν δικαιοσυνη λαλων ευθειαν οδον μισων ανομιαν και αδικιαν και τας χειρας αποσειομενος απο δωρων βαρυνων τα ωτα ινα μη ακουση κρισιν αιματος καμμυων τους οφθαλμους ινα μη ιδη αδικιαν
[16] ουτος οικησει εν υψηλω σπηλαιω πετρας ισχυρας αρτος αυτω δοθησεται και το υδωρ αυτου πιστον
[17] βασιλεα μετα δοξης οψεσθε και οι οφθαλμοι υμων οψονται γην πορρωθεν
[18] η ψυχη υμων μελετησει φοβον που εισιν οι γραμματικοι που εισιν οι συμβουλευοντες που εστιν ο αριθμων τους τρεφομενους
[19] μικρον και μεγαν λαον ω ου συνεβουλευσαντο ουδε ηδει βαθυφωνον ωστε μη ακουσαι λαος πεφαυλισμενος και ουκ εστιν τω ακουοντι συνεσις
[20] ιδου σιων η πολις το σωτηριον ημων οι οφθαλμοι σου οψονται ιερουσαλημ πολις πλουσια σκηναι αι ου μη σεισθωσιν ουδε μη κινηθωσιν οι πασσαλοι της σκηνης αυτης εις τον αιωνα χρονον ουδε τα σχοινια αυτης ου μη διαρραγωσιν
[21] οτι το ονομα κυριου μεγα υμιν τοπος υμιν εσται ποταμοι και διωρυγες πλατεις και ευρυχωροι ου πορευση ταυτην την οδον ουδε πορευσεται πλοιον ελαυνον
[22] ο γαρ θεος μου μεγας εστιν ου παρελευσεται με κυριος κριτης ημων κυριος αρχων ημων κυριος βασιλευς ημων κυριος ουτος ημας σωσει
[23] ερραγησαν τα σχοινια σου οτι ουκ ενισχυσεν ο ιστος σου εκλινεν ου χαλασει τα ιστια ουκ αρει σημειον εως ου παραδοθη εις προνομην τοινυν πολλοι χωλοι προνομην ποιησουσιν
[24] και ου μη ειπη κοπιω ο λαος ο ενοικων εν αυτοις αφεθη γαρ αυτοις η αμαρτια
