“No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord, and their righteousness is of me, saith the Lord.”
The conclusion 'No weapon that is fashioned against you shall prosper, and you shall confute every tongue that rises against you in judgment. This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord and their vindication from me, says the Lord' provides ultimate assurance that Jerusalem's enemies will fail and accusers will be silenced, while the servants of God inherit blessing and vindication. The reference to 'servants of the Lord' connects Jerusalem's restoration to the servant theology articulated in Isaiah 42, 49, 50, 52-53. This verse affirms that God's purpose will vindicate the community that has suffered and remained faithful.
