Isaiah 17:12-14

Easy-to-Read Version

¹² Listen to all these people!
    Their loud crying sounds like the noise from the sea.
    Listen, it is like the crashing of waves in the sea.
¹³ And like the waves,
    they will rush away when God speaks harshly to them.
They will be like chaff blown away by the wind.
    They will be like weeds chased by a storm.
¹⁴ That night, the people will be frightened.
    By morning, nothing will be left.
So our enemies will get nothing.
    They will come to our land, but nothing will be there.
