Isaiah 9:18-20
Living Bible
18 He will burn up all this wickedness, these thorns and briars; and the flames will consume the forests too, and send a vast cloud of smoke billowing up from their burning. 19-20 The land is blackened by that fire, by the wrath of the Lord of heaven’s armies. The people are fuel for the fire. Each fights against his brother to steal his food but will never have enough. Finally they will even eat their own children!

Isaiah 9:18-20
New International Version
18 Surely wickedness burns like a fire;(A)
it consumes briers and thorns,(B)
it sets the forest thickets ablaze,(C)
so that it rolls upward in a column of smoke.
19 By the wrath(D) of the Lord Almighty
the land will be scorched(E)
and the people will be fuel for the fire;(F)
they will not spare one another.(G)
20 On the right they will devour,
but still be hungry;(H)
on the left they will eat,(I)
but not be satisfied.
Each will feed on the flesh of their own offspring[a]:
