Isaias

15 For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel: In returning and rest shall ye be saved: in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength; and ye were unwilling.

16 And ye said, No: for we will flee upon horses; therefore shall ye flee; and. We will ride upon the swift; therefore shall they that pursue you be swift.

17 one thousand from before the rebuke of one, before the rebuke of five shall ye flee, till ye be left as a mast upon the top of a mountain, and like the ensign on the hill.

18 And therefore will the LORD wait, that he may be gracious unto you; and therefore will he be exalted, that he may have mercy upon you ; for the LORD is a God of judgment; happy are all that wait for him.
