Isaiah 37:27-29
1599 Geneva Bible

27 Whose inhabitants have [a]small power, and are afraid and confounded: they are like the grass of the field and green herb, or grass on the house tops, or corn blasted [b]afore it be grown.

28 But I know thy dwelling, and thy [c]going out, and thy coming in, and thy fury against me.

29 Because thou ragest against me, and thy tumult is come unto mine ears, therefore will I put mine [d]hook in thy nostrils, and my bridle in thy lips, and will bring thee back again the same way thou [e]camest.

Isaiah 37:27-29
New International Version

27 Their people, drained of power,
    are dismayed and put to shame.
They are like plants in the field,
    like tender green shoots,
like grass(A) sprouting on the roof,(B)
    scorched[a] before it grows up.

28 “But I know where you are
    and when you come and go(C)
    and how you rage(D) against me.
29 Because you rage against me
    and because your insolence(E) has reached my ears,
I will put my hook(F) in your nose(G)
    and my bit in your mouth,
and I will make you return
    by the way you came.(H)
