Isaiah 54:15 Context
13And all thy children shalbe taught of the Lord, and great shalbe the peace of thy children. 14In righteousnesse shalt thou be established: thou shalt be farre from oppression, for thou shalt not feare; & from terrour, for it shall not come neere thee. 15Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoeuer shal gather together against thee, shall fall for thy sake. 16Behold, I haue created the smith that bloweth the coales in the fire, and that bringeth foorth an instrument for his worke, and I haue created the waster to destroy. 17¶ No weapon that is formed against thee, shall prosper, and euery tongue that shall rise against thee in iudgement, thou shalt condemne. This is the heritage of the seruants of the Lord, and their righteousnesse is of me, saith the Lord.
