Isaiah 29:19-21 MWT
19 And the meek ones will certainly increase their rejoicing in Jehovah himself, and even the poor ones of mankind will be joyful in the Holy One of Israel himself, 20 because the cruel and arrogant must come to an end, and the bragger must come to his finish, and all those keeping alert to do harm must be destroyed, 21 those bringing a man into sin by his word, and those who lay a trap even for the one giving counsel in the gate, and those who push aside the righteous one with empty arguments.
Isaiah 29:19-21 LITV
(19) And the humble ones shall increase joy in Jehovah, and the poor among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
(20) For the terrible one is brought to nothing; and the scorner is ended; and all that watch for iniquity are cut off;
(21) those who make a man sin by a word, even laying a trap for the reprover in the gate, and turn aside the just for a worthless thing.
Isaiah 29:19-21 CEV
(19) The poor and the needy will celebrate and shout because of the LORD [Jehovah], the holy God of Israel.
(20) All who are cruel and arrogant will be gone forever. Those who live by crime will disappear,
(21) together with everyone who tells lies in court and keeps innocent people from getting a fair trial.
Isaiah 29:19-21 Darby
(19) and the meek shall increase their joy in Jehovah, and the needy among men shall rejoice in the Holy One of Israel.
(20) For the terrible one shall come to nought, and the scorner shall be no more, and all that watch for iniquity shall be cut off,
(21) that make a man an offender for a word, and lay a snare for him that reproveth in the gate, and pervert the judgment of the righteous by futility.
Isaiah 29:19-21 YLT
(19) And the humble have added joy in Jehovah, And the poor among men In the Holy One of Israel rejoice.
(20) For ceased hath the terrible one, And consumed hath been the scorner, And cut off have been all watching for iniquity,
(21) Causing men to sin in word, And for a reprover in the gate lay a snare, And turn aside into emptiness the righteous.

Since we don't speak those languages, we rely on those who have come before and made the effort to translate those texts into English for us.
