17 Your eyes will see (A)the King in His beauty;
They will see (B)a distant land.
18 Your heart will meditate on (C)terror:
“Where is (D)one who counts?
Where is one who weighs?
Where is one who counts the towers?”
19 You will no longer see a fierce people,
A people of [a](E)unintelligible speech [b]which no one comprehends,
Of a stammering tongue [c]which no one understands.
20 (F)Look at Zion, the city of our appointed feasts;
Your eyes will see Jerusalem, an (G)undisturbed settlement,
(H)A tent which will not be folded;
Its stakes will never be pulled up,
Nor any of its ropes be torn apart.
21 But there the majestic One, the Lord, will be for us
A place of (I)rivers and wide canals
On which no boat with oars will go,
And on which no mighty ship will pass—
22 For the Lord is our (J)judge,
The Lord is (K)our lawgiver,
The Lord is (L)our king;
(M)He will save us—
