The Glorious Future (ISA 33:17-24)

[33:17] Once again you will see a king ruling in splendor over a land that stretches in all directions.

[33:18] Your old fears of foreign tax collectors and spies will be only a memory.

[33:19] You will no longer see any arrogant foreigners who speak a language that you can't understand.

[33:20] Look at Zion, the city where we celebrate our religious festivals. Look at Jerusalem! What a safe place it will be to live in! It will be like a tent that is never moved, whose pegs are never pulled up and whose ropes never break.

[33:21] The Lord will show us his glory. We will live beside broad rivers and streams, but hostile ships will not sail on them.

[33:24] No one who lives in our land will ever again complain of being sick, and all sins will be forgiven.
