Isaiah 59:17-19
Modern English Version
17 For He put on righteousness as a breastplate
and a helmet of salvation on His head;
He put on the garments of vengeance for clothing
and was clad with zeal as a cloak.
18 According to their deeds,
accordingly He will repay:
fury to His adversaries,
recompense to His enemies;
to the islands He will make recompense.
19 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west
and His glory from the rising of the sun;
when the enemy shall come in like a flood,
the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.
Isaiah 59:17-19
New International Version
17 He put on righteousness as his breastplate,(A)
and the helmet(B) of salvation on his head;
he put on the garments(C) of vengeance(D)
and wrapped himself in zeal(E) as in a cloak.
18 According to what they have done,
so will he repay(F)
wrath to his enemies
and retribution to his foes;
he will repay the islands(G) their due.
19 From the west,(H) people will fear the name of the Lord,
and from the rising of the sun,(I) they will revere his glory.(J)
For he will come like a pent-up flood
that the breath(K) of the Lord drives along.[a]
