Isaiah 33:14-16

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁴ The sinners who live in Zion are afraid.
    The people who do not respect God shake with fear.
They ask, ‘Who among us can stay alive?
    This is a fire that burns everything.
    Nobody can stop it from burning!’
¹⁵ But some people can still live!
Those who are honest in what they do
    and fair in what they say.
Those who refuse to cheat other people
    so that they can become rich.
Those who refuse to accept bribes.
Those who will not listen to murderers,
    and who will not think about evil things.
¹⁶ People who are like that will live in a safe place.
    Danger will not reach them among the high rocks.
They will always have food to eat,
    and plenty of water to drink.
