Isaiah 17:11-13
EasyEnglish Bible
11 You take care of them so that they grow quickly. They may even make flowers on the same morning that you plant them! But you will never have any fruit from them. You will only get trouble and pain that will never go away.
12 It will be very bad for the armies of other nations! They are making a noise like the sea in a storm! They are as loud as powerful waves! 13 But it does not matter how much noise they make. Those people may roar like powerful waves, but the Lord will shout at them to stop. Then they will run far away! They will run like the wind as it blows chaff across the hills. It will be like a strong storm that carries away dead weeds!

Isaiah 17:11-13
New International Version
11 though on the day you set them out, you make them grow,
and on the morning(A) when you plant them, you bring them to bud,
yet the harvest(B) will be as nothing(C)
in the day of disease and incurable(D) pain.(E)
12 Woe to the many nations that rage(F)—
they rage like the raging sea!(G)
Woe to the peoples who roar(H)—
they roar like the roaring of great waters!(I)
13 Although the peoples roar(J) like the roar of surging waters,
when he rebukes(K) them they flee(L) far away,
driven before the wind like chaff(M) on the hills,
like tumbleweed before a gale.(N)
