Isaiah 28:4-6
International Children’s Bible

4 That beautiful crown of flowers is just a dying plant.
    It sits on a hill above a rich valley.
That city will be like the first fig of summer.
    When a person sees it,
    he quickly picks it and eats it.

5 At that time the Lord of heaven’s armies
    will be like a beautiful crown.
He will be like a wonderful crown of flowers
    for his people who are left alive.
6 Then the Lord will give wisdom
    to the judges who rule his people.
The Lord will give strength
    to those who battle at the city gate.

Isaiah 28:4-6
New International Version

4 That fading flower, his glorious beauty,
    set on the head of a fertile valley,(A)
will be like figs(B) ripe before harvest—
    as soon as people see them and take them in hand,
    they swallow them.

5 In that day(C) the Lord Almighty
    will be a glorious(D) crown,(E)
a beautiful wreath
    for the remnant(F) of his people.
6 He will be a spirit of justice(G)
    to the one who sits in judgment,(H)
a source of strength
    to those who turn back the battle(I) at the gate.
