Isaiah 28:17-19

New Century Version

¹⁷ I will use justice as a measuring line
    and goodness as the standard.
The lies you hide behind will be destroyed as if by hail.
    They will be washed away as if in a flood.
¹⁸ Your agreement with death will be erased;
    your contract with death will not help you.
When terrible punishment comes,
    you will be crushed by it.
¹⁹ Whenever punishment comes, it will take you away.
    It will come morning after morning;
    it will defeat you by day and by night.
Those who understand this punishment will be terrified.”
