Isaiah 27:8-10
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
8 By driving them out of Canaan, by exile, You contended with them in a measure [O Lord]—He removed them with His rough blast as in the day of the east wind.
9 Only on this condition shall the iniquity of Jacob (Israel) be forgiven and purged, and this shall be the full fruit [God requires] for taking away his sin: that [Israel] should make all the stones of the [idol] altars like chalk stones crushed to pieces, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall not remain standing or rise again.
10 For the fortified city is solitary, a habitation deserted and forsaken like the wilderness; there the calf grazes, and there he lies down; he strips its branches and eats its twigs.

Isaiah 27:8-10
New International Version
8 By warfare[a] and exile(A) you contend with her—
with his fierce blast he drives her out,
as on a day the east wind(B) blows.
9 By this, then, will Jacob’s guilt be atoned(C) for,
and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin:(D)
When he makes all the altar stones(E)
to be like limestone crushed to pieces,
no Asherah poles[b](F) or incense altars(G)
will be left standing.
10 The fortified city stands desolate,(H)
an abandoned settlement, forsaken(I) like the wilderness;
there the calves graze,(J)
there they lie down;(K)
they strip its branches bare.
