New English Translation
Isaiah 30:21-23
New English Translation
21 You[a] will hear a word spoken behind you, saying,
“This is the correct[b] way, walk in it,”
whether you are heading to the right or the left.
22 You will desecrate your silver-plated idols[c]
and your gold-plated images.[d]
You will throw them away as if they were a menstrual rag,
saying to them, “Get out!”
23 He will water the seed you plant in the ground,
and the ground will produce crops in abundance.[e]
At that time[f] your cattle will graze in wide pastures.
