Isaiah 10:16-23

New International Version

¹⁶Therefore, the Lord, the Lord Almighty,
    will send a wasting disease^(A) upon his sturdy warriors;^(B)
under his pomp^(C) a fire^(D) will be kindled
    like a blazing flame.
¹⁷The Light of Israel will become a fire,^(E)
    their Holy One^(F) a flame;
in a single day it will burn and consume
    his thorns^(G) and his briers.^(H)
¹⁸The splendor of his forests^(I) and fertile fields
    it will completely destroy,^(J)
    as when a sick person wastes away.
¹⁹And the remaining trees of his forests^(K) will be so few^(L)
    that a child could write them down.

The Remnant of Israel

²⁰In that day^(M) the remnant of Israel,
    the survivors^(N) of Jacob,
will no longer rely^(O) on him
    who struck them down^(P)
but will truly rely^(Q) on the Lord,
    the Holy One of Israel.^(R)
²¹A remnant^(S) will return,^[a]^(T) a remnant of Jacob
    will return to the Mighty God.^(U)
²²Though your people be like the sand^(V) by the sea, Israel,
    only a remnant will return.^(W)
Destruction has been decreed,^(X)
    overwhelming and righteous.
²³The Lord, the Lord Almighty, will carry out
    the destruction decreed^(Y) upon the whole land.^(Z)
