Isaiah 5:24-26

New American Standard Bible 1995

²⁴ Therefore, ^(A)as a tongue of fire consumes stubble
And dry grass collapses into the flame,
So their ^(B)root will become ^(C)like rot and their blossom ^[a]blow away as dust;
For they have ^(D)rejected the law of the Lord of hosts
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
²⁵ On this account the ^(E)anger of the Lord has burned against His people,
And He has stretched out His hand against them and struck them down.
And the ^(F)mountains quaked, and their ^(G)corpses ^[b]lay like refuse in the middle of the streets.
^(H)For all this His anger ^[c]is not spent,
But His ^(I)hand is still stretched out.

²⁶ He will also lift up a ^(J)standard to the ^[d]distant nation,
And will ^(K)whistle for it ^(L)from the ends of the earth;
And behold, it will ^(M)come with speed swiftly.
