Isaiah 16:4 (KJV)
Commentary on Isaiah 16:4
"Let mine outcasts dwell with thee, Moab; be thou a covert to them from the face of the spoiler." The word "covert" (seter) means hiding place, secret shelter. Protection "from the face of the spoiler" acknowledges a common enemy threatening both nations. The prophecy continues: "the extortioner is at an end, the spoiler ceaseth, the oppressors are consumed"—demonstrating God's multi-level justice. He judges Moab for pride, yet also judges empires that brutalize nations. This reveals that instruments of divine judgment themselves face ultimate judgment.
