Isaiah 37:25-27

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁶ You said that, but now listen to this!^[a]
    You must surely have heard it already.
I decided what to do a long time ago!
    Now I am causing it to happen.
I decided that you would destroy strong cities
    so that they became heaps of stones.
²⁷ The people of those cities have no power.
    They are afraid and they are confused.
They are like plants in a field,
    that cannot live for a long time.
They are like fresh green grass,
    or grass that grows on the roof of a house.
When a hot wind blows on them,
    it burns them and they die.
