Isaiah 33:18-20

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁸ Then you will think about the time when you were afraid.
You will say, ‘Where is the enemy's important officer?
    Where is the officer that we paid taxes to?
    Where is the officer who counted our strong buildings?
They are no longer here to give us trouble!’
¹⁹ You will never see those cruel people again.
    You could not understand their language.
    They laughed at you with strange words.
²⁰ Now, look at Zion, the city where we have our festivals.
Yes, you will see Jerusalem.
    It will be a place that is quiet and safe.
It will be like a tent that people will never move.
    They will never pull up its pegs.
    They will never break its ropes.
