Isa 27
1
In that day the LORD with His sore and great and strong sword will punish leviathan
the slant serpent, and leviathan the tortuous serpent; and He will slay the dragon
that is in the sea.
2
In that day sing ye of her: 'A vineyard of foaming wine!'
3
I the LORD do guard it, I water it every moment; lest Mine anger visit it, I guard
it night and day.
4
Fury is not in Me; would that I were as the briers and thorns in flame! I would with
one step burn it altogether.
5
Or else let him take hold of My strength, that he may make peace with Me; yea, let
him make peace with Me.
6
In days to come shall Jacob take root, Israel shall blossom and bud; and the face
of the world shall be filled with fruitage.
7
Hath He smitten him as He smote those that smote him? Or is he slain according to
the slaughter of them that were slain by Him?
8
In full measure, when Thou sendest her away, Thou dost contend with her; He hath removed
her with His rough blast in the day of the east wind.
9
Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be expiated, and this is all the fruit
of taking away his sin: when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones
that are beaten in pieces, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more.
10
For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation abandoned and forsaken, like the
wilderness; there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the
branches thereof.
11
When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come,
and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore He that made
them will not have compassion upon them, and He that formed them will not be gracious
unto them.
12
And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD will beat off His fruit from
the flood of the River unto the Brook of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one,
O ye children of Israel.
13
And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great horn shall be blown; and they
shall come that were lost in the land of Assyria, and they that were dispersed in
the land of Egypt; and they shall worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
