Isaiah 5:24-25
Legacy Standard Bible
24 Therefore, (A)as a tongue of fire consumes stubble
And dry grass collapses into the flame,
So their (B)root will become (C)like rot and their blossom [a]blow away as dust;
For they have (D)rejected the law of Yahweh of hosts
And the word of the Holy One of Israel they have spurned.
25 On this account, the (E)anger of Yahweh has burned against His people,
And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them down.
And the (F)mountains trembled, and their (G)corpses [b]lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.
(H)For all this His anger is not turned back,
But His (I)hand is still stretched out.

Isaiah 5:24-25
Evangelical Heritage Version
24 Therefore, as the flames of a fire devour stubble,
and as dry grass sinks down into the flames,
in the same way their roots will rot,
and their blossoms will dry up like dust,
because they have rejected the law[a] of the Lord of Armies,
and they have despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Therefore, the Lord’s anger burns against his people,
and he has stretched out his hand against them and has struck them.
The mountains tremble,
and their dead bodies will lie like garbage in the middle of the streets.
In spite of all this, his anger is not turned away,
and his hand is still stretched out, ready to strike.
