My righteousness is near; my salvation is gone forth, and mine arms shall judge the people; the isles shall wait upon me, and on mine arm shall they trust.

Lift up your eyes to the heavens, and look upon the earth beneath: for the heavens shall vanish away like smoke, and the earth shall wax old like a garment, and they that dwell therein shall die in like manner: but my salvation shall be for ever, and my righteousness shall not be abolished.

Hearken unto me, ye that know righteousness, the people in whose heart is my law; fear ye not the reproach of men, neither be ye afraid of their revilings.

For the moth shall eat them up like a garment, and the worm shall eat them like wool: but my righteousness shall be for ever, and my salvation from generation to generation.

My righteousness draws near speedily,
    my salvation(A) is on the way,(B)
    and my arm(C) will bring justice to the nations.
The islands(D) will look to me
    and wait in hope(E) for my arm.
Lift up your eyes to the heavens,
    look at the earth beneath;
the heavens will vanish like smoke,(F)
    the earth will wear out like a garment(G)
    and its inhabitants die like flies.
But my salvation(H) will last forever,(I)
    my righteousness will never fail.(J)

“Hear me, you who know what is right,(K)
    you people who have taken my instruction to heart:(L)
Do not fear the reproach of mere mortals
    or be terrified by their insults.(M)
For the moth will eat them up like a garment;(N)
    the worm(O) will devour them like wool.
But my righteousness will last forever,(P)
    my salvation through all generations.”
