Isaiah 24:16

Deceivers deceive, deceivers thoroughly deceive!”

The Lord Will Restore Zion

33:1 The destroyer is as good as dead,

the one whom others have not deceived!

When you are through destroying, you will be destroyed;

when you finish deceiving, others will deceive you!

Isaiah 33:1

The Lord Will Restore Zion

33:1 The destroyer is as good as dead,

the one whom others have not deceived!

When you are through destroying, you will be destroyed;

when you finish deceiving, others will deceive you!

just as the earth’s mortally wounded fell

because of Babylon.
