Isaiah 17:11-13

International Standard Version

¹¹at the time that you plant them,
    carefully making them grow,
the very morning you make your seed to sprout,
    your harvest will be ruined^[a]
        in a time of grief and unbearable pain.”^[b]

¹²“How terrible it will be for many peoples,
    who rage like the roaring sea!
Oh, how the uproar of nations
    is like the sound of rushing, mighty water—
    How they roar!
¹³The nations roar like the rushing of many waters,^[c]
    but the Lord^[d] will rebuke them,
and they will run far away,
    chased like chaff blown down from the mountains
or like thick dust^[e] that rolls along,
    blown along by a wind storm.
