Isaiah 5:25-27
Christian Standard Bible
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger burned(A) against his people.
He raised his hand against them and struck them;
the mountains quaked,(B)
and their corpses were like garbage in the streets.
In all this, his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is still raised to strike.(C)
26 He raises a signal flag for the distant nations(D)
and whistles(E) for them from the ends of the earth.
Look—how quickly and swiftly they come!
27 None of them grows weary or stumbles;(F)
no one slumbers or sleeps.
No belt is loose
and no sandal strap broken.
Isaiah 5:25-27
EasyEnglish Bible
25 So the Lord has become angry with his people. He is ready to punish them. He has lifted up his hand, so that the mountains shake. Dead bodies of people are lying all over the streets. But that is not enough! The Lord is still angry with them. His hand is ready to punish them even more.
26 The Lord will send a message to foreign nations to come and attack. He calls to nations that are far away, and now they are already coming! Their armies march quickly to Jerusalem.
27 None of their soldiers are tired. They do not fall down. Nobody rests. Nobody sleeps. They have tied their belts strongly. Their shoes do not break in pieces.
