17 In
a very short time, will not Lebanon be turned into a fertile field and the fertile field seem like a forest? (8)
18 In that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of gloom and darkness the eyes of the blind will see.
19 Once more the humble will rejoice in the Lord(Jesus); the needy will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

9 Be stunned and
amazed, blind yourselves
and be sightless;
be drunk, but not from wine, stagger, but not from beer.

23 When
they see among them their children, the work of my hands, they
will keep my name holy;
they will acknowledge the holiness of the Holy One of Jacob, and will stand in awe of the God of Israel. (5)

15 Woe to those who go to great depths to hide their plans from the Lord, who do their work in darkness and think, “Who sees us? Who will know?”
16 You turn things upside down, as if the Potter were thought to be like the clay! Shall what is formed say to the One who formed it, “You did not make me”? Can the pot say to the Potter, “You know nothing”?

5 But
your many enemies will become like fine dust, the ruthless hordes like blown chaff.
Suddenly, in an instant, (5)
6 the Lord Almighty(Jesus) will come with thunder and earthquake and great noise, with windstorm and tempest and flames of a devouring fire.
7 Then the hordes of all the nations that fight against Ariel, that attack her and her fortress and besiege her, will be as it is with a dream, with a vision in the night—

ruthless will vanish, the mockers will disappear, and all who have an eye for evil will be cut down— (2)

11 For
you this whole vision is nothing but words sealed in a scroll. And if you give
the scroll to someone who can read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will
answer, “I can’t; it is sealed.”

12 Or if you give the
scroll to someone who cannot read, and say, “Read this, please,” they will
answer, “I don’t know how to read.”
13 The Lord says: “These
people come near to me with their mouth and honor me with
their lips, but their hearts are far from me. Their worship
of me is based
on merely human rules they have been taught.

Woe to David’s City
29 Woe to you, Ariel,
Ariel, the city where
David settled!
Add year to year and let your cycle of festivals go on.
2 Yet I will besiege Ariel; she will mourn and lament, she will be to me like an altar hearth. (2)
3 I will encamp against you on all sides; I will encircle you with towers and set up my siege works against you.
4 Brought low, you will speak from the ground; your speech will mumble out of the dust. Your voice will come ghostlike from the earth; out of the dust your speech will whisper. The day of judgment for the world!!!
