Contemporary English Version
Isaiah 30:26-28
Contemporary English Version
26 Then the Lord will bandage his people's injuries and heal the wounds he has caused. The moon will shine as bright as the sun, and the sun will shine seven times brighter than usual. It will be like the light of seven days all at once.
Assyria Will Be Punished
27 The Lord is coming
from far away
with his fiery anger
and thick clouds of smoke.[a]
His angry words flame up
like a destructive fire;
28 he breathes out a flood
that comes up to the neck.
He sifts the nations
and destroys them.
Then he puts a bridle
in every foreigner's mouth
and leads them to doom.

Isaiah 30:26-28
New International Version
26 The moon will shine like the sun,(A) and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the Lord binds up the bruises of his people and heals(B) the wounds he inflicted.
27 See, the Name(C) of the Lord comes from afar,
with burning anger(D) and dense clouds of smoke;
his lips are full of wrath,(E)
and his tongue is a consuming fire.(F)
28 His breath(G) is like a rushing torrent,(H)
rising up to the neck.(I)
He shakes the nations in the sieve(J) of destruction;
he places in the jaws of the peoples
a bit(K) that leads them astray.
