Isaiah 33:16-17 He shall dwell on high: his place of defense shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure.… Two birds went out to build their nests. One found a tree by the river's edge, and made her nest among its branches. The river murmured below, and the sunshine played among the leaves. But one night there was a storm, and the tree was torn out, and carried away in the floods — nest and nestlings and all. The other bird found a crag in a mountain, and built its home in a cleft of the rock. The storm swept over it, and the floods rushed through the valley, but the nest with its nestlings was safe in the rock. (Westminster Teacher.) Parallel Verses KJV: He shall dwell on high: his place of defence shall be the munitions of rocks: bread shall be given him; his waters shall be sure. |
