Isaiah 9:19-21 New International Version
19 By the wrath(A) of the Lord Almighty
the land will be scorched(B)
and the people will be fuel for the fire;(C)
they will not spare one another.(D)
20 On the right they will devour,
but still be hungry;(E)
on the left they will eat,(F)
but not be satisfied.
Each will feed on the flesh of their own offspring[a]:
21 Manasseh will feed on Ephraim, and Ephraim on Manasseh;(G)
together they will turn against Judah.(H)
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.(I)

The day God visits you has come,
the day your watchmen sound the alarm.

a daughter rises up against her mother,(M)
a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law—
