Isaiah 10:16-18

GOD’S WORD Translation

¹⁶ That is why the Almighty Lord of Armies
will send a degenerative disease against brave men.
A flame will be turned into a raging fire under his power.
¹⁷ Israel’s light will become a flame.
Its Holy One will become a fire.
He will burn up and devour the weeds and thornbushes in one day.
¹⁸ The majestic forest and the orchard
will destroy both body and soul.
They will be like a sick person wasting away.
