NASB Bible

Isaiah 27

The Deliverance of Israel

1

In that day  athe LORD will punish  1 bLeviathan the fleeing serpent, With His fierce and great and mighty sword, Even  1Leviathan the twisted serpent; And  cHe will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.

2

In that day, "A  1 avineyard of wine, sing of it!

3

"I, the LORD, am its keeper;  aI water it every moment. So that no one will  1damage it, I  bguard it night and day.

4

"I have no wrath. Should  1someone give Me  abriars and thorns in battle, Then I would step on them,  bI would burn them  2completely.

5

"Or let him  1 arely on My protection, Let him make peace with Me, Let him  bmake peace with Me."

6

 1In the days to come Jacob  awill take root, Israel will  bblossom and sprout, And they will fill the  2whole world with  cfruit.

7

Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has  aHe struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain,  1have they been slain?

8

You contended with them  1by banishing them, by  adriving them away. With His fierce wind He has expelled them on the day of the  beast wind.

9

Therefore through this Jacob's iniquity will be  aforgiven; And this will be  1the full price of the  2 bpardoning of his sin: When he makes all the  caltar stones like pulverized chalk stones; When  3Asherim and incense altars will not stand.

10

For the fortified city is  aisolated, A  1homestead forlorn and forsaken like the desert;  bThere the calf will graze, And there it will lie down and  2feed on its branches.

11

When its  alimbs are dry, they are broken off; Women come and make a fire with them, For they are not a people of  bdiscernment, Therefore  ctheir Maker  dwill not have compassion on them. And their Creator will not be gracious to them.

12

In that day the LORD  awill start His threshing from the flowing stream of the  bEuphrates to the brook of Egypt, and you will be  cgathered up one by one, O sons of Israel.

13

It will come about also in that day that a great  atrumpet will be blown, and those who were perishing in the land of  bAssyria and who were scattered in the land of Egypt will come and  cworship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
