Isaiah 28:2-4
Contemporary English Version

2 Only the Lord is strong
    and powerful!
His mighty hand
    will strike them down
with the force of a hailstorm
or a mighty whirlwind
    or an overwhelming flood.

3 Every drunkard in Ephraim[a]
takes pride in Samaria,
    but it will be crushed.
4 Samaria above a fertile valley
    will quickly lose its glory.
It will be gobbled up
like the first ripe fig
    at harvest season.
