Isaiah 5:26-30
New King James Version
26 (A)He will lift up a banner to the nations from afar,
And will (B)whistle to them from (C)the end of the earth;
Surely (D)they shall come with speed, swiftly.
27 No one will be weary or stumble among them,
No one will slumber or sleep;
Nor (E)will the belt on their loins be loosed,
Nor the strap of their sandals be broken;
28 (F)Whose arrows are sharp,
And all their bows bent;
Their horses’ hooves will [a]seem like flint,
And their wheels like a whirlwind.
29 Their roaring will be like a lion,
They will roar like young lions;
Yes, they will roar
And lay hold of the prey;
They will carry it away safely,
And no one will deliver.
30 In that day they will roar against them
Like the roaring of the sea.
And if one (G)looks to the land,
Behold, darkness and [b]sorrow;
And the light is darkened by the clouds.

Isaiah 5:26-30
American Standard Version
26 And he will lift up an ensign to the nations from far, and will hiss for [a]them from the end of the earth; and, behold, [b]they shall come with speed swiftly. 27 None shall be weary nor stumble among them; none shall slumber nor sleep; neither shall the girdle of their loins be loosed, nor the latchet of their shoes be broken: 28 whose arrows are sharp, and all their bows bent; their horses’ hoofs shall be accounted as flint, and their wheels as a whirlwind: 29 their roaring shall be like a lioness, they shall roar like young lions; yea, they shall roar, and lay hold of the prey, and carry it away safe, and there shall be none to deliver. 30 And they shall roar [c]against them in that day like the roaring of the sea: and if one look unto the land, [d]behold, darkness and distress; and the light is darkened in the clouds thereof.
