Isaiah 29:21 in Context — Isaiah 29

19 E os mansos terão cada vez mais alegria no SENHOR; e os necessitados entre os homens se alegrarão no Santo de Israel.

20 Pois os violentos serão eliminados, e os zombadores serão consumidos; e todos os que gostam de maldade serão extintos.

21 Os que acusam aos homens por meio de palavras, e armam ciladas contra quem [os] repreende na porta [da cidade] ,e os que prejudicam ao justo.

22 Portanto, assim o Senhor DEUS, que libertou a Abraão, diz à casa de Jacó: Jacó não será mais envergonhado, nem seu rosto ficará pálido,

23 Pois quando ele vir seus filhos, obra de minhas mãos, no meio de si, [então] santificarão ao meu nome; santificarão ao Santo de Jacó, e temerão ao Deus de Israel.
