Judgment on Assyria
27 Behold, the name of the Lord comes from afar,
Burning with His anger,
And His burden is heavy;
His lips are full of indignation,
And His tongue like a devouring fire.
28 (A)His breath is like an overflowing stream,
(B)Which reaches up to the neck,
To sift the nations with the sieve of futility;
And there shall be (C)a bridle in the jaws of the people,
Causing them to err.
29 You shall have a song
As in the night when a holy festival is kept,
And gladness of heart as when one goes with a flute,
To come into (D)the mountain of the Lord,
To [a]the Mighty One of Israel.
30 (E)The Lord will cause His glorious voice to be heard,
And show the descent of His arm,
With the indignation of His anger
And the flame of a devouring fire,
With scattering, tempest, (F)and hailstones.
31 For (G)through the voice of the Lord
Assyria will be [b]beaten down,
As He strikes with the (H)rod.
32 And in every place where the staff of punishment passes,
Which the Lord lays on him,
It will be with tambourines and harps;
And in battles of (I)brandishing He will fight with it.
33 (J)For Tophet was established of old,
Yes, for the king it is prepared.
He has made it deep and large;
Its pyre is fire with much wood;
The breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone,
Kindles it.

A Rebellious People
8 Now go, (A)write it before them on a tablet,
And note it on a scroll,
That it may be for time to come,
Forever and ever:
9 That (B)this is a rebellious people,
Lying children,
Children who will not hear the law of the Lord;
10 (C)Who say to the seers, “Do not see,”
And to the prophets, “Do not prophesy to us right things;
(D)Speak to us smooth things, prophesy deceits.
11 Get out of the way,
Turn aside from the path,
Cause the Holy One of Israel
To cease from before us.”
Isaiah 29:6
New King James Version
6 (A)You will be punished by the Lord of hosts
With thunder and (B)earthquake and great noise,
With storm and tempest
And the flame of devouring fire.
Isaiah 28:17-22
New King James Version
17 Also I will make justice the measuring line,
And righteousness the plummet;
The hail will sweep away the refuge of lies,
And the waters will overflow the hiding place.
18 Your covenant with death will be annulled,
And your agreement with Sheol will not stand;
When the overflowing scourge passes through,
Then you will be trampled down by it.
19 As often as it goes out it will take you;
For morning by morning it will pass over,
And by day and by night;
It will be a terror just to understand the report.”
20 For the bed is too short to stretch out on,
And the covering so narrow that one cannot wrap himself in it.
21 For the Lord will rise up as at Mount (A)Perazim,
He will be angry as in the Valley of (B)Gibeon—
That He may do His work, (C)His awesome work,
And bring to pass His act, His [a]unusual act.
22 Now therefore, do not be mockers,
Lest your bonds be made strong;
For I have heard from the Lord God of hosts,
(D)A [b]destruction determined even upon the whole earth.

Isaiah 28:14-15
New King James Version
14 Therefore hear the word of the Lord, you scornful men,
Who rule this people who are in Jerusalem,
15 Because you have said, “We have made a covenant with death,
And with Sheol we are in agreement.
When the overflowing scourge passes through,
It will not come to us,
(A)For we have made lies our refuge,
And under falsehood we have hidden ourselves.”
