Isaiah 5:24-25
Christian Standard Bible
24 Therefore, as a tongue of fire consumes straw
and as dry grass shrivels in the flame,
so their roots will become like something rotten
and their blossoms will blow away like dust,
for they have rejected(A)
the instruction of the Lord of Armies,
and they have despised
the word of the Holy One of Israel.(B)
25 Therefore the Lord’s anger burned(C) against his people.
He raised his hand against them and struck them;
the mountains quaked,(D)
and their corpses were like garbage in the streets.
In all this, his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is still raised to strike.(E)
Isaiah 5:24-25
English Standard Version
24 Therefore, (A)as the tongue of fire devours the stubble,
and as dry grass sinks down in the flame,
so (B)their root will be (C)as rottenness,
and their blossom go up like dust;
for they have (D)rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
and have (E)despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 Therefore (F)the anger of the Lord was kindled against his people,
and he stretched out his hand against them and struck them,
and (G)the mountains quaked;
and their corpses were (H)as refuse
in the midst of the streets.
(I)For all this his anger has not turned away,
and his hand is stretched out still.
