Isaiah 33:18-20

New Catholic Bible

¹⁸ Your mind will then meditate on the terror.
    “Where is the man who did the counting?
Where is the man who weighed the tribute?
    Where is the man who counted the towers?”
¹⁹ No longer will you encounter the insolent people,
    those who employ an obscure speech
    that you cannot understand
and who stammer in a language
    that you are unable to comprehend.
²⁰ Gaze upon Zion,
    the city of our sacred feasts.
Your eyes will behold Jerusalem as a quiet abode,
    as a tent that will not be moved,
whose stakes will never be pulled up
    and none of whose ropes will be broken.
