Isaiah 27:8-10
Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 27:8-10
Contemporary English Version
8 I carefully measured out
Israel's punishment[a]
and sent the scorching heat
to chase them far away.
9 There's only one way
that Israel's sin and guilt
can be completely forgiven:
They must crush the stones
of every pagan altar
and place of worship.
The Lord Will Bring His People Together
10 Fortress cities are left
like a desert
where no one lives.
Cattle walk through the ruins,
stripping the trees bare.
