Isaiah 29:19

Read in context

Isaiah 29:17–21 · Berean Standard Bible

17 In a very short time, will not Lebanon become an orchard, and the orchard seem like a forest?

18 On that day the deaf will hear the words of the scroll, and out of the deep darkness the eyes of the blind will see.

19 The humble will increase their joy in the LORD, and the poor among men will rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.

20 For the ruthless will vanish, the mockers will disappear, and all who look for evil will be cut down—

21 those who indict a man with a word, who ensnare the mediator at the gate, and who with false charges deprive the innocent of justice.
