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
New King James Version
24 Therefore, (A)as the [a]fire devours the stubble,
And the flame consumes the chaff,
So (B)their root will be as rottenness,
And their blossom will ascend like dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 (C)Therefore the anger of the Lord is aroused against His people;
He has stretched out His hand against them
And stricken them,
And (D)the hills trembled.
Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets.
(E)For all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.
