Isaiah 27:2-13
Legacy Standard Bible
2 In that day,
“A [a](A)vineyard of delight, sing of it!
3 I, Yahweh, am its keeper;
(B)I water it every moment.
Lest anyone [b]damage it,
I (C)keep it night and day.
4 I have no wrath.
Who would ever give Me (D)briars and thorns in the battle?
I would step on them, (E)I would burn them [c]completely.
5 Or let him [d](F)rely on My strong defense,
Let him make peace with Me,
Let him (G)make peace with Me.”
6 [e]In the days to come Jacob (H)will take root,
Israel will (I)blossom and bud,
And they will fill the [f]whole world with (J)produce.
7 Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has (K)He struck them?
Or like the slaughter of those of His who were killed, [g]have they been killed?
8 You contended with them [h]by driving them away, by (L)making them forlorn.
With His fierce wind He has expelled them on the day of the (M)east wind.
9 Therefore through this, Jacob’s iniquity will be (N)atoned for;
And this will be the whole fruit of the (O)turning away of his sin:
When he makes all the (P)altar stones like pulverized chalk stones,
When [i]Asherim and incense altars will not stand.
10 For the fortified city is (Q)isolated,
A [j]haunt [k]forlorn and forsaken like the desert;
(R)There the calf will graze,
And there it will lie down and [l]feed on its twigs.
11 When its (S)limbs are dry, they are broken off;
Women come and light a fire with them,
For they are not a people of (T)discernment,
Therefore (U)their Maker (V)will not have compassion on them.
And their Creator will not be gracious to them.
12 And it will be in that day, that Yahweh (W)will start His threshing from the flowing stream of the [m](X)River to the brook of Egypt, and you will be (Y)gathered up one by one, O sons of Israel. 13 And it will be in that day, that a great (Z)trumpet will be blown, and those who were perishing in the land of (AA)Assyria and who were banished in the land of Egypt will come and (AB)worship Yahweh in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.

Isaiah 27:2-13
American Standard Version
2 In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing ye [a]unto it. 3 I Jehovah am its keeper; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. 4 Wrath is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them, I would burn them together. 5 Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; yea, let him make peace with me. 6 [b]In days to come shall Jacob take root; Israel shall blossom and bud; and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7 Hath he smitten them as he smote those that smote them? or are they slain according to the slaughter [c]of them that were slain by them? 8 [d]In measure, [e]when thou sendest them away, thou dost contend with them; he hath removed them with his rough blast in the day of the east wind. 9 Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be [f]forgiven, and this is all the fruit [g]of taking away his sin: that he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more. 10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof. 11 When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding: therefore he that made them will not have compassion upon them, and he that formed them will show them no favor.
12 And it shall come to pass in that day, that Jehovah will [h]beat off his fruit from the flood of the River unto the brook of Egypt; and ye shall be [i]gathered [j]one by one, O ye children of Israel.
13 And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come that were [k]ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and they that were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship Jehovah in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
