Isaiah 28:20-22
New American Standard Bible 1995
20 The bed is too short on which to stretch out,
And the (A)blanket is too [a]small to wrap oneself in.
21 For the Lord will rise up as at Mount (B)Perazim,
He will be stirred up as in the valley of (C)Gibeon,
To do His (D)task, His [b](E)unusual task,
And to work His work, His [c]extraordinary work.
22 And now do not carry on as (F)scoffers,
Or your fetters will be made stronger;
For I have heard from the Lord [d]God of hosts
Of decisive (G)destruction on all the earth.

New International Version
Isaiah 28:20-22
New International Version
20 The bed is too short to stretch out on,
the blanket too narrow to wrap around you.(A)
21 The Lord will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim,(B)
he will rouse himself as in the Valley of Gibeon(C)—
to do his work,(D) his strange work,
and perform his task, his alien task.
22 Now stop your mocking,(E)
or your chains will become heavier;
the Lord, the Lord Almighty, has told me
of the destruction decreed(F) against the whole land.(G)
