Isaiah 27:7-9
New Life Version
Isaiah 27:7-9
New Life Version
7 Has the Lord punished Israel as He punished those who went against Israel? Or have as many people of Israel been killed as their killers were killed? 8 You showed Your anger towards them by driving them out of the land. You moved them out with Your strong wind on the day of the east wind. 9 So by this Jacob’s sin will be forgiven. This will be the full price of taking his sin away: When he crushes all the altar stones into fine pieces, so the wooden female goddess Asherah and the altars of special perfume will not stand.

New International Version
Isaiah 27:7-9
New International Version
7 Has the Lord struck her
as he struck(A) down those who struck her?
Has she been killed
as those were killed who killed her?
8 By warfare[a] and exile(B) you contend with her—
with his fierce blast he drives her out,
as on a day the east wind(C) blows.
9 By this, then, will Jacob’s guilt be atoned(D) for,
and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin:(E)
When he makes all the altar stones(F)
to be like limestone crushed to pieces,
no Asherah poles[b](G) or incense altars(H)
will be left standing.
