International Standard Version
Isaiah 30:32-33
International Standard Version
32 And every stroke of his punishing rod[a] that the Lord brings down on them will be to the sound of tambourines and harps, as he fights against her[b] in battle with a brandished arm.
33 For the Fire Pit[c] has long been prepared; truly it is for the king; it will indeed be made ready.[d] And[e] its pyre will be deep and wide, with abundant fire and wood. Like a stream of burning sulfur, the breath of the Lord will set it ablaze.
