Isaiah 66:15-17
International Standard Version
15 “Take notice! The Lord will come with fire,
and his chariot[a] will be[b] like a whirlwind,
to pay back his anger—yes, his anger!—[c] in fury,
and his menacing rebukes[d] in flames of fire.
16 For with fire and with his sword the Lord will proceed to judgment[e] on all humanity,[f]
and those slain by the Lord will be many.”
17 “Those who consecrate and purify themselves to enter the groves,[g] following the one at the center of those who eat the meat of pigs, disgusting things,[h] and rats, are all alike,”[i] says[j] the Lord.
