33:1
Woe to thee that spoilest, and thou wast not spoiled; and dealest treacherously, and they dealt not treacherously with thee! When thou hast ceased to spoil, thou shalt be spoiled; and when thou art weary with dealing treacherously, they shall deal treacherously with thee.

33:2
O the Lord, be gracious unto us; we have waited for Thee; be Thou their arm every morning, our salvation also in the time of trouble.

33:3
At the noise of the tumult the peoples are fled; at the lifting up of Thyself the nations are scattered.

33:5
the Lord is exalted, for He dwelleth on high; He hath filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

33:6
And the stability of thy times shall be a hoard of salvation--wisdom and knowledge, and the fear of the Lord which is His treasurer

33:7

33:8
The highways lie waste, the wayfaring man ceaseth; he hath broken the covenant, he hath despised the cities, he regardeth not man.

33:9

33:10
Now will I arise, saith the Lord; now will I be exalted; now will I lift Myself up.

33:11
Ye conceive chaff, ye shall bring forth stubble; your breath is a fire that shall devour you.

33:12

33:13
Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge My might.

33:14
The sinners in Zion are afraid; trembling hath seized the ungodly: 'Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire? Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?'

33:15
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;

33:16
He shall dwell on high; his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks; his bread shall be given, his waters shall be sure.

33:17
Thine eyes shall see the king in his beauty; they shall behold a land stretching afar.

33:18
Thy heart shall muse on the terror: 'Where is he that counted, where is he that weighed? Where is he that counted the towers?'

But there the Lord will be with us in majesty, in a place of broad rivers and streams; wherein shall go no galley with oars, neither shall gallant ship pass thereby.

33:22
For the Lord is our Judge, the Lord is our Lawgiver, the Lord is our King; He will save us.

33:23
Thy tacklings are loosed; they do not hold the stand of their mast, they do not spread the sail; then is the prey of a great spoil divided; the lame take the prey.

33:24
And the inhabitant shall not say: 'I am sick'; the people that dwell therein shall be forgiven their iniquity.
