Isaiah 30:27-33

Modern English Version

²⁷ See, the name of the Lord comes from afar,
    burning with His anger, and its burden is heavy;
His lips are full of indignation,
    and His tongue as a devouring fire.
²⁸ And His breath is as an overflowing stream
    which reaches to the middle of the neck,
to sift the nations with the sieve of vanity;
    and there shall be a bridle in the jaws of the people,
    causing them to err.
²⁹ You shall have songs,
    as in the night when a festival is kept,
and gladness of heart,
    as when one goes with a flute
to come into the mountain of the Lord,
    to the Mighty One of Israel.
³⁰ The Lord shall cause His glorious voice to be heard,
    and shall show the descending of His arm
with the indignation of His anger, and with the flame of a devouring fire,
    with scattering, and cloudburst, and hailstones.
³¹ For through the voice of the Lord the Assyrian shall be beaten down
    when He strikes with a rod.
³² And every blow of the rod of punishment
    which the Lord shall lay on him
shall be with tambourines and harps;
    and in battles, brandishing weapons, He will fight them.
³³ For Topheth has been long prepared,
    indeed, for the king it has been prepared.
He has made it deep and large,
    a pile of fire with much wood;
the breath of the Lord,
    like a stream of brimstone,
    kindles it.
