Isaiah 5:26-28
International Standard Version
Isaiah 5:26-28
International Standard Version
26 The Lord[a] will signal[b] for nations far away,
whistling for them to come[c]
from the ends of the earth.
Look how quickly
and how swiftly they come!
27 No one is weary, no one stumbles,[d]
and no one slumbers or sleeps.
No belt around their waists will come undone,
nor will their sandal straps be broken.
28 Their arrows are sharp,
all their bows ready for action.[e]
Their horses’ hooves seem like flint,
and their chariot wheels spin[f] like a whirlwind.
