Isaiah 33:16

He, the heights, shall inhabit, A stronghold of crags, shall be his refuge,—His bread, hath been delivered, His waters, have been made sure,

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.

In Context

15He that walketh righteously, And speaketh uprightly,—He that refuseth the gain of exactions That shaketh his hands free from holding a bribe, That stoppeth his ear from hearkening to deeds of blood, And shutteth his eyes from giving countenance to wrong,

17Of a king, in his beauty, shall thine eyes have vision: They shall see a land that stretcheth afar.

( b. c. 710.) 13 Hear, ye that are far off, what I have done; and, ye that are near, acknowledge my might. 14 The sinners in Zion are afraid; fearfulness hath surprised the hypocrites.
