Isaiah:27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In that day Jehovah ,
with his sore and great and strong sword ,
will visit leviathan the fleeing serpent ,
and leviathan the crooked serpent ;
and he will slay the monster that is in the sea .
*
In that day [
there shall be ]
a vineyard of pure wine ;
sing concerning it :
*
I Jehovah keep it ,
I will water it every moment ;
lest any harm it ,
I will keep it night and day .
*
Fury is not in me .
Oh that I had briars [
and ]
thorns in battle against me !
I would march against them ,
I would burn them together .
*
Or let him take hold of my strength ;
let him make peace with me : [
yea ,]
let him make peace with me .
*
In the future Jacob shall take root ;
Israel shall blossom and bud ,
and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit .
*
Hath he smitten him according to the smiting of those that smote him ?
Is he slain according to the slaughter of those slain by him ?
*
In measure ,
when sending her away ,
didst thou contend with her :
he hath taken [
her ]
away with his rough wind in the day of the east wind .
*
By this ,
therefore ,
shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged ;
and this is all the fruit of the taking away of his sin :
when he shall make all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are crumbled in pieces , --
the Asherahs and the sun-images shall not stand .
*
For the fortified city is solitary ,
a habitation abandoned and forsaken like a wilderness ;
there shall the calf feed ,
and there shall he lie down ,
and consume its boughs .
*
When its branches are withered they shall be broken off ;
women shall come [
and ]
set them on fire .
For it is a people of no intelligence ;
therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them ,
and he who formed them will shew them no favour .
*
And it shall come to pass in that day ,
that Jehovah shall beat out from the flood of the river unto the torrent of Egypt ,
and ye shall be gathered one by one , [
ye ]
children of Israel .
*
And it shall come to pass in that day , [
that ]
the great trumpet shall be blown ;
and they shall come that were perishing in the land of Assyria ,
and the outcasts in the land of Egypt ,
and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem .
