Isaiah 26:20-27:1
New American Standard Bible
20 Come, my people, (A)enter your rooms
And close your doors behind you;
Hide for a little [a](B)while
Until (C)indignation [b]runs its course.
21 For behold, the Lord is about to (D)come out from His place
To (E)punish the inhabitants of the earth for their wrongdoing;
And the earth will (F)reveal her bloodshed
And will no longer cover her slain.
God’s Blessings for Israel
27 On that day (G)the Lord will punish [c](H)Leviathan the fleeing serpent,
With His fierce and great and mighty sword,
Even [d]Leviathan the twisted serpent;
And (I)He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.

Isaiah 26:20-27:1
American Standard Version
20 Come, my people, enter thou into thy chambers, and shut thy doors about thee: hide thyself for a little moment, until the indignation be overpast. 21 For, behold, Jehovah cometh forth out of his place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity: the earth also shall disclose her blood, and shall no more cover her slain.
27 In that day Jehovah with his hard and great and strong sword will punish leviathan the [a]swift serpent, and leviathan the [b]crooked serpent; and he will slay the monster that is in the sea.
