New Century Version
Isaiah 59:17-19
New Century Version
17 He covered himself with goodness like armor.
He put the helmet of salvation on his head.
He put on his clothes for punishing
and wrapped himself in the coat of his strong love.
18 The Lord will pay back his enemies for what they have done.
He will show his anger to those who were against him;
he will punish the people in faraway places as they deserve.
19 Then people from the west will fear the Lord,
and people from the east will fear his glory.
The Lord will come quickly like a fast-flowing river,
driven by the breath of the Lord.

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]
