Isaiah 57:12 in context

1. 10You were wearied with the length of your ways;
   yet you didn’t say, ‘It is in vain.’
   You found a reviving of your strength;
   therefore you weren’t faint.
2. 11“Whom have you dreaded and feared,
   so that you lie,
   and have not remembered me, nor laid it to your heart?
   Haven’t I held my peace for a long time,
   and you don’t fear me?
3. 12I will declare your righteousness;
   and as for your works, they will not benefit you.
4. 13When you cry,
   let those whom you have gathered deliver you;
   but the wind will take them.
   a breath will carry them all away:
   but he who takes refuge in me will possess the land,
   and will inherit my holy mountain.”
5. 14He will say, “Build up, build up, prepare the way!
   Remove the stumbling-block out of the way of my people.”
