Isaiah 5:28-30

Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

²⁸ their arrows are sharp,
    all their bows bent,
their horses’ hoofs seem like flint,
    and their wheels like the whirlwind.
²⁹ Their roaring is like a lion,
    like young lions they roar;
they growl and seize their prey,
    they carry it off, and none can rescue.
³⁰ They will growl over it on that day,
    like the roaring of the sea.
And if one look to the land,
    behold, darkness and distress;
and the light is darkened by its clouds.
