Isaiah 66:15-17
New King James Version
15 (A)For behold, the Lord will come with fire
And with His chariots, like a whirlwind,
To render His anger with fury,
And His rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For by fire and by (B)His sword
The Lord will judge all flesh;
And the slain of the Lord shall be (C)many.
17 “Those(D) who sanctify themselves and purify themselves,
To go to the gardens
[a]After an idol in the midst,
Eating swine’s flesh and the abomination and the mouse,
Shall [b]be consumed together,” says the Lord.

Lexham English Bible
15 For look! Yahweh will come in fire,
and his chariots like the storm wind,
to give back[a] his anger in wrath,
and his rebuke in flames of fire.
16 For Yahweh enters into judgment on all flesh with fire and his sword,
and those slain by[b] Yahweh shall be many.
17 Those who sanctify themselves
and those who cleanse themselves to go into[c] the gardens after the one in the middle,
eating the flesh of swine
and detestable things[d] and rodents[e] together
shall come to an end!” declares[f] Yahweh.
