Isaiah 59:17 in Context — Isaiah 59
15 Y la verdad fué detenida; y el que se apartó del mal, fué puesto en presa: y viólo Jehová, y desagradó en sus ojos, porque pereció el derecho.
16 Y vió que no había hombre, y maravillóse que no hubiera quien se interpusiese; y salvólo su brazo, y afirmóle su misma justicia.
17 Pues de justicia se vistió como de loriga, con capacete de salud en su cabeza: y vistióse de vestido de venganza por vestidura, y cubrióse de celo como de manto,
18 Como para retribuir, como para retornar ira á sus enemigos, [y] dar el pago á sus adversarios: el pago dará á las islas.
19 Y temerán desde el occidente el nombre de Jehová, y desde el nacimiento del sol su gloria: porque vendrá el enemigo como río, [mas] el espíritu de Jehová levantará bandera contra él.
