Isaiah 56:8-10
EasyEnglish Bible
8 The Almighty Lord is the one who brings together all the Israelite people who are in exile. He says, ‘I will continue to bring more people to join with them.’
God warns Israel's leaders
9 ‘Come here, you wild animals!
Come, you wild animals that live in the forest!
Come and eat my people![a]
10 Israel's guards are blind!
They do not see what is happening.
They are all like dogs that cannot make a noise.
They cannot warn people about danger.
They love to lie on the ground
and they dream while they sleep.
Footnotes
- 56:9 God is speaking to Israel's enemies as if they are wild animals. He is telling them to come and punish his people.
