Isaiah 27:1-2
New Catholic Bible
Chapter 27
1 On that day,
the Lord will use his sword
that is cruel and great and strong
to punish Leviathan[a] the fleeing serpent,
Leviathan the writhing serpent,
and he will slay that dragon
that resides in the sea.
2 [b]On that day,
sing of the pleasant vineyard.
