Isaiah 27:6-8

New International Reader's Version

⁶ In days to come, Jacob’s people will put down roots like a vine.
    Israel will bud and bloom.
    They will fill the whole world with fruit.

⁷ The Lord struck down those who struck down Israel.
    But he hasn’t punished Israel as much.
The Lord killed those who killed many of his people.
    But he hasn’t punished his people as much.
⁸ The Lord will use war to punish Israel.
    He will make them leave their land.
With a strong blast of his anger he will drive them out.
    It will be as if the east wind were blowing.
