14 The sinners in Zion are terrified;

trembling grips the godless:

“Who of us can dwell with the consuming fire?

Who of us can dwell with everlasting burning?”

15 Those who walk righteously

and speak what is right,

who reject gain from extortion

and keep their hands from accepting bribes,

who stop their ears against plots of murder

and shut their eyes against contemplating evil—

16 they are the ones who will dwell on the heights,

whose refuge will be the mountain fortress.

Their bread will be supplied,

and water will not fail them.

17 Your eyes will see the king in his beauty

and view a land that stretches afar.

Isaiah 33:14–17 — King James Version (KJV 1900)

14 The sinners in Zion are afraid;

Fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites.

Who among us shall dwell with the devouring fire?

Who among us shall dwell with everlasting burnings?

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 seeing evil;

16 He shall dwell on high:

His place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks:

Bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

They shall behold the land that is very far off.

14 The sinners in Jerusalem shake with fear.

Terror seizes the godless.

“Who can live with this devouring fire?” they cry.

“Who can survive this all-consuming fire?”

15 Those who are honest and fair,

who refuse to profit by fraud,

who stay far away from bribes,

who refuse to listen to those who plot murder,

who shut their eyes to all enticement to do wrong—

16 these are the ones who will dwell on high.

The rocks of the mountains will be their fortress.

and they will have water in abundance.

And shuts his eyes from seeing evil:

16 He will dwell on high;

His place of defense will be the fortress of rocks;

Bread will be given him,

His water will be sure.

those who are separated from God shake with fear.

They say, “Can any of us live through this fire that destroys?

Who can live near this fire that burns on and on?”

15 A person who does what is right

and speaks what is right,

who refuses to take money unfairly,

who refuses to take money to hurt others,

who does not listen to plans of murder,

who refuses to think about evil—

16 this is the kind of person who will be safe.

They tremble with fear.

They say, ‘Who of us can live through the Lord’s destroying fire?

Who of us can live through the fire that burns forever?’

15 A person must do what is right.

He must be honest and tell the truth.

He must not get rich by cheating others.

His hands must not receive money from those who want special favors.

He must not let his ears listen to plans to commit murder.

He must close his eyes to even thinking about doing what is evil.

16 A person like that will be kept safe.

It will be as if he were living on high mountains.

It will be as if he were living in a mountain fort.

He will have all of the food he needs.

And he will never run out of water.”

You will view his kingdom spreading far and wide.

He who rejects unjust gain

And shakes his hands so that they hold no bribe;

He who stops his ears from hearing about bloodshed

And shuts his eyes from looking upon evil;

16 He will dwell on the heights,

His refuge will be the impregnable rock;

His bread will be given him,

His water will be sure.

They will behold a far-distant land.
