Isaiah 59:18

Read in context

Isaiah 59:16–20 · Berean Standard Bible

16 He saw that there was no man; He was amazed that there was no one to intercede. So His own arm brought salvation, and His own righteousness sustained Him.

17 He put on righteousness like a breastplate, and the helmet of salvation on His head; He put on garments of vengeance and wrapped Himself in a cloak of zeal.

18 So He will repay according to their deeds: fury to His enemies, retribution to His foes, and recompense to the islands.

19 So shall they fear the name of the LORD where the sun sets, and His glory where it rises. For He will come like a raging flood, driven by the breath of the LORD.

20 “The Redeemer will come to Zion, to those in Jacob who turn from transgression,” declares the LORD.
