The Book of Isaiah (WEB)

27: 1In that day Yahweh with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he will kill the monster that is in the sea. 27:2In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing you to it. 27:3I Yahweh am its keeper; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. 27:4Wrath is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march on them, I would burn them together. 27:5Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; yes, let him make peace with me. 27:6In days to come shall Jacob take root; Israel shall blossom and bud; and they shall fill the surface of the world with fruit. 27:7Has he struck them as he struck those who struck them? or are they slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by them? 27:8In measure, when you send them away, you do contend with them; he has removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind. 27:9Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be forgiven, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: that he makes all the stones of the altar as chalk stones that are beaten in sunder, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more. 27:10For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches of it. 27:11When the boughs of it 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 who made them will not have compassion on them, and he who formed them will show them no favor. 27:12It shall happen in that day, that Yahweh will beat off his fruit from the flood of the River to the brook of Egypt; and you shall be gathered one by one, you children of Israel. 27:13It shall happen in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come who were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and those who were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship Yahweh in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
