Isaiah 27:7-9

New Century Version

⁷ The Lord has not hurt his people as he hurt their enemies;
    his people have not been killed like those who tried to kill them.
⁸ He will settle his argument with Israel by sending it far away.
    Like a hot desert wind, he will drive it away.
⁹ This is how Israel’s guilt will be forgiven;
    this is how its sins will be taken away:
Israel will crush the rocks of the altar to dust,
    and no statues or altars will be left standing for the Asherah idols.
