Isaiah 5:24-25
Common English Bible
Isaiah 5:24-25
Common English Bible
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire devours stubble,
and as hay shrivels in a flame,
so their roots will rot,
and their blossoms turn to dust,
for they have rejected the teaching of the Lord of heavenly forces,
and have despised the word of Israel’s holy one.
God’s powerful hand
25 This is why the Lord’s anger burned against the people:
he extended his hand to strike them,
the mountains trembled,
and their corpses lay in the middle of the streets like dung.
Even then God’s anger didn’t turn away;
God’s hand was still extended.

New International Version
Isaiah 5:24-25
New International Version
24 Therefore, as tongues of fire(A) lick up straw(B)
and as dry grass sinks down in the flames,
so their roots will decay(C)
and their flowers blow away like dust;(D)
for they have rejected the law of the Lord Almighty
and spurned the word(E) of the Holy One(F) of Israel.
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger(G) burns against his people;
his hand is raised and he strikes them down.
The mountains shake,(H)
and the dead bodies(I) are like refuse(J) in the streets.(K)
