Isaías 33:19

19 No verás a aquel pueblo espantable, pueblo de lengua oscura de entender, de lengua tartamuda, que no lo comprendas.

Isaías 33:19 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 33:19

Thou shalt not see a fierce people
A people of a fierce countenance, as in ( Daniel 8:23 ) fierce in their looks, furious in their temper, cruel and bloodthirsty in their practices, confirmed and hardened in their sins, whose consciences are seared as with a red hot iron; a character given of the Papists, ( 1 Timothy 4:2 ) these shall be no more seen nor feared: a people of a deeper speech than thou canst perceive;
than the people in common could, having their worship and devotion not in their mother tongue, but in the Latin tongue: of a stammering tongue, [that thou canst] not understand:
meaning the same as before, a barbarous language, as everyone is to those who understand it not; so the Syriac and Assyrian languages were to the Jews, ( 2 Kings 18:26 ) and so the Roman language to other nations; but now no more to be used in religious worship; nor shall the church of God be any more visited by Turks or Papists, and be in any dread of them more.

Isaías 33:19 In-Context

17 Tus ojos verán al Rey en su hermosura; verán la tierra que está lejos.

18 Tu corazón imaginará el espanto, y dirá : ¿Qué es del escriba? ¿Qué es del pesador del tributo ? ¿Qué es del que pone en lista las casas más insignes?

19 No verás a aquel pueblo espantable, pueblo de lengua oscura de entender, de lengua tartamuda, que no lo comprendas.

20 Verás a Sion, ciudad de nuestras solemnidades; tus ojos verán a Jerusalén, morada de quietud; tienda que no será desarmada, ni sus estacas serán arrancadas, ni ninguna de sus cuerdas será rota.

21 Porque ciertamente allí será fuerte a nosotros el SEÑOR, lugar de riberas, de arroyos muy anchos, por el cual no andará galera, ni por él pasará gran navío.
