  1. Isaiah 59:15 Or evil

16 But as for me, I have not hurried away from being a shepherd following after You,
Nor have I longed for the disastrous day;
(A)You Yourself know that the utterance of my lips
Was in Your presence.
17 Do not be a (B)terror to me;
You are my (C)refuge in a day of disaster.
18 Let those who persecute me be (D)put to shame, but as for me, (E)let me not be put to shame;
Let them be dismayed, but let me not be dismayed.
(F)Bring on them a day of disaster,
And crush them with double destruction!
