katapi HOME Isaiah 59:16 - The LORD prepares to rescue his people.  Is.59.15b-21

59 16 He saw that there was no man,
and wondered that there was no one to intervene;
then his own arm brought him victory,
and his righteousness upheld him.
59 17 He put on righteousness as a breastplate,
and a helmet of salvation upon his head;
he put on garments of vengeance for clothing,
and wrapped himself in fury as a mantle.
59 18 According to their deeds, so will he repay,
wrath to his adversaries, requital to his enemies;
to the coastlands he will render requital.
59 19 So they shall fear the name of Yahweh from the west,
and his glory from the rising of the sun;
for he will come like a rushing stream,
which the wind of Yahweh drives.
59 20 "And he will come to Zion as Redeemer, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression, says Yahweh.

59 21 "And as for me, this is my covenant with them, says Yahweh: my spirit which is upon you, and my words which I have put in your mouth, shall not depart out of your mouth, or out of the mouth of your children, or out of the mouth of your children's children, says Yahweh, from this time forth and for evermore."
