Isaiah 66:15-17
New American Standard Bible
15 For behold, the Lord will come in (A)fire,
And His (B)chariots like the whirlwind,
To render His anger with fury,
And His rebuke with flames of fire.
16 For the Lord will execute judgment by (C)fire
And by His (D)sword on [a]humanity,
And those put to death by the Lord will be many.
17 “Those who sanctify and purify themselves to go to the (E)gardens,
[b]Following one in the center,
Who eat (F)pig’s flesh, detestable things, and mice,
Will (G)come to an end altogether,” declares the Lord.

New Living Translation
15 See, the Lord is coming with fire,
and his swift chariots roar like a whirlwind.
He will bring punishment with the fury of his anger
and the flaming fire of his hot rebuke.
16 The Lord will punish the world by fire
and by his sword.
He will judge the earth,
and many will be killed by him.
17 “Those who ‘consecrate’ and ‘purify’ themselves in a sacred garden with its idol in the center—feasting on pork and rats and other detestable meats—will come to a terrible end,” says the Lord.
