Prophesy / Thought of the day 12 February 2013

Woe to you who plunder, though you have not not been plunderered;and you deallt tacherously,though they have not dealt tracherously with you!When you cease plundering,you will be plundered;when you make an end of dealing tracherously,they will deal tracherously with you.

2 O LORD, be gacious to us;we have waites for You. Be their arm every morning,our salvation also n the time of trouble.

3 At the noise of the tumult the people shall flee;when You lift Yourself up,the nations shall be scattered;

4 And Your plunder shall gathered like the gathering of the caterpillar;as the running to and fro of the locusts,He shall run down upon them.

5 The LORD is exalted,for He dwells on high;He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.

6 Wisdom and knowledge will be the stability of your times,and the strength of the salvation;the fear of the Lord is his treasure.

7 Surely their valiant ones shall cry outside,the ambassdors of peace shall weep bitterly.

8 The highways lie waste,the traveling man ceases.He has broken the covenant,He has despised the cities,He regard no man.

9 The earth mourns and languishes, Lebanon is shamed and shriveled;Sharon is like a wilderness,and Bashan and Carmel shake off their fruits.

10 " Now I will rise,"says the LORD;  "Now I will be exalted,now I will lift Myself up.

11 You shall conceive chaff,you shall bring forth stubble;your  breath ,as fire ,shall devour you.

12 And the people shall be like the burning of the lime;like throns cut up they shall burned in the fire.

13  Hear,you who are afar off,what I have done;and you who are near,acknowledge My might." Isaiah 33:1-13
