Isaiah 5:26-28

Contemporary English Version

Foreign Nations Will Attack

²⁶ The Lord has signaled for the foreign nations to come and attack you. He has already whistled, and they are coming as fast as they can. ²⁷ None of them are tired. They don't sleep or get drowsy, and they run without stumbling. Their belts don't come loose; their sandal straps don't break. ²⁸ Their arrows are sharp, and their bows are ready. The hoofs of their horses are hard as flint; the wheels of their war chariots turn as fast as a whirlwind.
