32:5The fool will no longer be called noble, / Nor will the cheat be said to be generous;
Compare
-
32:6For the fool will speak foolishness, / And his heart will commit iniquity / By committing profaneness / And by speaking error against Jehovah, / By leaving the soul of the hungry empty / And by causing drink for the thirsty to fail.
Compare
-
32:7And as for the cheat, his tools are evil; / He devises wicked schemes / To destroy the poor with false words / Even when the needy speaks rightly.
Compare
-
32:8But the noble man devises noble things, / And upon noble things he stands.

32:13Upon the land of my people / Will come up thorns and briers, / Indeed upon all the jubilant houses / In the exultant city.
Compare
-
32:14Because the palace will be abandoned; / The multitude of the city will be forsaken; / The Hill and the watchtower / Will become caves forever, / A joy for wild asses, / A pasture for flocks;
Compare
-
32:15Until the Spirit is poured upon us from on high, / And the wilderness becomes a fruitful field, / And the fruitful field is considered to be a forest.
Compare
-
32:16Then justice will dwell in the wilderness, / And righteousness will remain in the fruitful field;
Compare

32:17And the work of righteousness will be peace, / And the result of righteousness, quietness and assurance forever.
Compare

32:18And my people will live in a peaceful habitation / And in secure dwellings and carefree resting places.

Compare
-
33:5Jehovah is exalted, for He dwells on high; / He has filled Zion with justice and righteousness.
Compare

33:6And there will be stability for your times: / A wealth of salvation, wisdom, and knowledge; / The fear of Jehovah is his treasure.
Compare
-
33:7Indeed their heroes cry in the streets; / The ambassadors of peace weep bitterly.
Compare
-
33:8The highways are desolate; / The traveler ceases to travel. / He has broken the covenant; he despises the cities; / He does not regard man.
Compare
-
33:9The land mourns and languishes; / Lebanon is ashamed and withers away; / Sharon is like a desert, / And Bashan and Carmel shake off their leaves.
Compare
-
33:10Now I will arise, says Jehovah, / Now I will be exalted; now I will be lifted up.
Compare
-
33:11You will conceive chaff; you will give birth to stubble; / Your own breath, like fire, will devour you;

Compare
-
33:15He who walks in righteousness and speaks uprightness; / He who rejects gains seized by extortion; / He who shakes his hands lest they hold on to a bribe, / Who stops his ears so as not to hear of bloodshed / And shuts his eyes so as not to look at evil.
Compare

33:16This one will dwell on the heights; / His lofty retreat will be the rocky strongholds; / His bread will be given to him; his water will be sure.
Compare
-
33:17Your eyes will see the King in His beauty; / They will behold a land that is very far away.
Compare
-
33:18Your heart will meditate on terror: / Where is he who counts? Where is he who weighs? / Where is he who counts the towers?
Compare
-
33:19You will not see a fierce people, / A people of unintelligible speech, hardly audible, / Of a stammering tongue which cannot be understood.
Compare
-
33:20Look upon Zion, the city of our appointed feasts; / Your eyes will see Jerusalem, / A secure habitation, a tent that will not be removed; / Its stakes will never be pulled up, / And none of its cords will be torn apart.

34:3Thus their slain are cast away, / And from their corpses their stench will come up; / And the mountains will be melted with their blood.
Compare
-
34:4And all the armies of heaven will be dissolved, / And the heavens will be rolled up like a scroll, / And all their host will wither away, / As the leaf withers from the vine, / Or like a leaf withering from the fig tree.
Compare

34:5For My sword has drunk its fill in heaven. / Now it will descend in judgment upon Edom / And upon the people whom I have devoted to judgment.
Compare
-
34:6Jehovah's sword is full of blood; / It has fattened itself with fat, / With the blood of lambs and goats, / With the fat of the kidneys of rams; / For Jehovah has a sacrifice in Bozrah / And a great slaughter in the land of Edom.
Compare
-
34:7Wild oxen will also go down with them, / The young bulls with the bulls; / And their land will drink its fill of their blood, / And their dust will become fat with their fat.
Compare

34:8For Jehovah has a day of vengeance, / A year of recompense for Zion's contention.
Compare
-
34:9And its streams will be turned into pitch, / And its dust into brimstone; / And its land will become burning pitch.
Compare

34:11But the pelican and the porcupine will inherit it, / And the owl and the raven will dwell in it; / And He will stretch over it / The line of nothingness and the plummet weights of emptiness.

Compare
-
34:14Desert animals will meet with hyenas; / And the demon will call to his kind, / Indeed there Lilith will settle / And find a resting place for herself.
Compare

34:15There the owl will make its nest and lay eggs, / And hatch them and gather them under its protection; / Indeed there the vultures will be gathered together, / Each with its kind.
Compare

35:5Then the eyes of the blind will be opened, / And the ears of the deaf will be unstopped;
Compare

35:6Then the lame will leap like a hart, / And the tongue of the dumb will give a ringing shout; / For water will break forth in the wilderness, / And streams in the desert.
Compare
-
35:7And the desert mirage will become a pool, / And the thirsty ground, springs of water; / In the habitation of jackals, their resting place, / There will be grass with reeds and rushes.
Compare
-
35:8And a highway will be there, and a way, / And it will be called, The Way of Holiness. / The unclean will not pass on it, / But it will be for him who walks on the way; / No fools will err in it.
Compare
-
35:9There will be no lion there, / Nor will any ravenous animal go up on it; / They will not be found there; / But the redeemed will walk on it.
Compare
