Isaiah 33:17-19

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

¹⁷ Your eyes will see the king in his beauty;
    they will behold a land that stretches far away.
¹⁸ Your mind will muse on the terror:
    “Where is the one who counted?
    Where is the one who weighed the tribute?
    Where is the one who counted the towers?”
¹⁹ No longer will you see the insolent people,
    the people of an obscure speech that you cannot comprehend,
    stammering in a language that you cannot understand.
