Isaiah 33:6

King James Version (1769)

6 And wisdom and knowledge shall be the stability of thy times, and strength of salvation: the fear of the Lord is his treasure.
Untruth

Misinterpretations often treat this verse as a general promise of worldly success through human intellect or accumulation of knowledge alone, ignoring its context in a prophecy of judgment on Assyria and restoration for Zion, or twist 'treasure' into material wealth rather than reverential awe of God as the foundation for enduring salvation.

Truth

Isaiah 33:6 reveals that true stability and security for God's people during uncertain times come from divine wisdom and knowledge, culminating in the fear of the Lord as their greatest treasure, which provides the strength of salvation and anchors them amid turmoil.
