Isaiah 27:6-8

International Standard Version

⁶ In times to come, Jacob will take root,
    and^[a] Israel will blossom, sprout shoots,
        and fill the whole world with fruit.

⁷ Has the Lord^[b] struck them down,
    just as he struck down those who struck them?
Or have they been killed,
    just as their killers were killed?
⁸ Measure by measure,^[c]
    in their exile you contended with them;
with his fierce blast he removed them,
    as on a day when the east wind blows.
