Isaiah 30:17-19

International Children’s Bible

¹⁷ One enemy will make threats,
    and 1,000 of your men will run away.
Five enemies will make threats,
    and all of you will run from them.
You will be left alone like a flagpole on a hilltop.
    You will be like a banner on a hill.
¹⁸ The Lord wants to show his mercy to you.
    He wants to rise and comfort you.
The Lord is a fair God.
    And everyone who waits for his help will be happy.
