Isaiah 5:25-27

New International Reader's Version

Even then, the Lord is still angry.
    His hand is still raised against them.

²⁶ He lifts up a banner to gather the nations that are far away.
    He whistles for them to come
    from the farthest places on earth.
Here they come.
    They are moving very quickly.
²⁷ None of them grows tired.
    None of them falls down.
    None of them sleeps or even takes a nap.
All of them are ready for battle.
    Every belt is pulled tight.
    Not a single sandal strap is broken.
