Isaiah 33:16-18

Revised Standard Version

¹⁶ he will dwell on the heights;
    his place of defense will be the fortresses of rocks;
    his bread will be given him, his water will be sure.

¹⁷ Your eyes will see the king in his beauty;
    they will behold a land that stretches afar.
¹⁸ Your mind will muse on the terror:
    “Where is he who counted, where is he who weighed the tribute?
    Where is he who counted the towers?”
