Isaiah:27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
In that day will Jehovah punish with his sword ,
His hard ,
and great ,
and strong sword ,
The leviathan ,
that fleet serpent ,
Even the leviathan ,
that winding serpent ;
Yea ,
he will slay the monster ,
that is in the sea .
*
In that day ,
sing ye thus concerning the vineyard :
* "
I ,
Jehovah ,
am its guardian ;
I will water it every moment ;
That no one may assault it ,
I will watch it day and night .
*
There is no fury in me ;
But let me find the thorns and thistles in battle .
I will go against them ,
And burn them up together ,
*
Unless they take hold of my protection ,
And with me make peace ,
And make peace with me ."
*
In coming days shall Jacob take root ,
And Israel flourish and bud forth ,
And fill the world with fruit .
*
Did he smite Israel ,
as he smote those that smote him ?
Was he slain as those that slew him ?
*
In measure ,
by sending her away ,
didst thou punish her ,
Taking her away in the rough tempest ,
in the day of the east wind .
*
By this ,
therefore ,
is the iniquity of Jacob expiated ,
And this is wholly the fruit of the removal of his sin ,
That He has made the stones of the altar like limestones broken in pieces ,
And that the images of Astarte and the sun
pillars no more stand .
*
For the fortified city is desolate ,
A habitation forsaken ,
deserted like a wilderness ;
There doth the calf feed ,
and there doth he lie down ,
And consume her branches .
*
When her boughs are withered ,
they are broken off ;
Women come ,
and burn them ;
For it was a people of no understanding ;
Therefore he that made him had not mercy on him ,
And he that formed him showed him no favor .
*
But it shall come to pass in that day ,
That Jehovah shall gather fruit From the stream of the Euphrates to the river of Egypt ,
And ye shall be gathered ,
one by one ,
ye children of Israel !
*
In that day shall a great trumpet be sounded ,
And they shall come who are lost in the land of Assyria ,
And are outcasts in the land of Egypt ,
And shall worship Jehovah upon the holy mountain in Jerusalem .
