16 And he saw that there was no man,

and he was appalled that there was no one who intercedes,

sol his arm came to assist him,

and his righteousness ⌊was what⌋m sustained him.

17 And he put on righteousness like a breastplate,

and a helmet of salvation on his head,

and he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,

and he wrapped himself in zeal as in a robe.

18 According to deeds, so he will repay;

wrath to his enemies, requital to those who are his ⌊enemies⌋.n

He will repay requital to the coastlands.

19 Soo they shall fear the name of Yahweh from the west,

and his glory from the sunrise,

for he will come like a narrow stream;

the wind of Yahweh drives it on.

20 “And a redeemer will come to Zion,

to those in Jacob who turn away from transgression,”

⌊declares⌋p Yahweh.

21 “And as for me, this is my covenant with them, says Yahweh:

my spirit that is upon you,

and my words that I have placed in your mouth

shall not depart from your mouth,

orq from the mouthsr of your ⌊children⌋,s

ort from the mouthsu of ⌊your children’s children⌋,”v

says Yahweh, “from now on and forever.”
