Isaiah 42:24-25
EasyEnglish Bible
24 Who put Jacob's descendants
under the power of their enemies?
Who gave the Israelites
to people who would rob them?
It was the Lord!
He is the one that we have not obeyed.
His people did not live in the way that he wanted.
They did not obey his law.
25 So the Lord was very angry with them.
He punished them with a cruel war.
His anger was like a fire all round them,
but they did not understand what he was doing.
His anger burned them,
but they did not learn their lesson.
Isaiah 42:24-25
New International Version
24 Who handed Jacob over to become loot,
and Israel to the plunderers?(A)
Was it not the Lord,(B)
against whom we have sinned?
For they would not follow(C) his ways;
they did not obey his law.(D)
25 So he poured out on them his burning anger,(E)
the violence of war.
It enveloped them in flames,(F) yet they did not understand;(G)
it consumed them, but they did not take it to heart.(H)
