18Your heart shall muse on the terror: Where is he who counted, where is he who weighed [the tribute]? where is he who counted the towers?
19You shall not see the fierce people, a people of a deep speech that you can not comprehend, of a strange language that you can not understand.
20Look on Zion, the city of our solemnities: your 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 of it be broken.
21But there Yahweh will be with us in majesty, a place of broad rivers and streams, in which shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.
22For Yahweh is our judge, Yahweh is our lawgiver, Yahweh is our king; he will save us.
23Your rigging is loosed; they could not strengthen the foot of their mast, they could not spread the sail: then was the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame took the prey.
24The inhabitant shall not say, I am sick: the people who dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
