Isaiah 29:19 Context
17Is it not yet a very litle while, and Lebanon shall be turned into a fruitful field, and the fruitfull field shall be esteemed as a forrest? 18¶ And in that day shall the deafe heare the words of the booke, and the eyes of the blind shall see out of obscuritie, and out of darkenesse. 19The meeke also shall increase their ioy in the Lord, and the poore among men shall reioice in the holy One of Israel. 20For the terrible one is brought to nought, and the scorner is consumed, and all that watch for iniquitie are cut off: 21That make a man an offendour for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproueth in the gate, and turne aside the iust for a thing of nought.
