Isaiah 33:14-16
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
14 In Zion sinners are in dread,
trembling grips the impious:
“Who of us can live with consuming fire?
who of us can live with everlasting flames?”(A)
15 Whoever walks righteously and speaks honestly,
who spurns what is gained by oppression,
Who waves off contact with a bribe,
who stops his ears so as not to hear of bloodshed,
who closes his eyes so as not to look on evil—(B)
16 That one shall dwell on the heights,
with fortresses of rock for stronghold,
food and drink in steady supply.
