Isaiah 27:10-12
Contemporary English Version
The Lord Will Bring His People Together
10 Fortress cities are left
like a desert
where no one lives.
Cattle walk through the ruins,
stripping the trees bare.
11 When broken branches
fall to the ground,
women pick them up
to feed the fire.
But these people are so stupid
that the God who created them
will show them no mercy.
12 The time is coming when the Lord will shake the land between the Euphrates River and the border of Egypt, and one by one he will bring all of his people together.

Isaiah 27:10-12
New International Version
10 The fortified city stands desolate,(A)
an abandoned settlement, forsaken(B) like the wilderness;
there the calves graze,(C)
there they lie down;(D)
they strip its branches bare.
11 When its twigs are dry, they are broken off(E)
and women come and make fires(F) with them.
For this is a people without understanding;(G)
so their Maker has no compassion on them,
and their Creator(H) shows them no favor.(I)
12 In that day the Lord will thresh(J) from the flowing Euphrates to the Wadi of Egypt,(K) and you, Israel, will be gathered(L) up one by one.
