Isaiah 27:9-11
Jubilee Bible 2000
9 Therefore, in this manner shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged; and this shall be all the fruit, the removal of his sin; when he shall return all the stones of the altar, as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder that they may not raise up the groves, or the images of the sun.
10 Otherwise the defenced city shall be made desolate, and the habitation shall be forsaken and left like a wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down and consume the branches thereof.
11 When its boughs are withered, they shall be broken off: women shall come and set them on fire: for this is not a people of understanding: therefore he that made them will not have mercy on them, and he that formed them will show them no favour.

Isaiah 27:9-11
New International Version
9 By this, then, will Jacob’s guilt be atoned(A) for,
and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin:(B)
When he makes all the altar stones(C)
to be like limestone crushed to pieces,
no Asherah poles[a](D) or incense altars(E)
will be left standing.
10 The fortified city stands desolate,(F)
an abandoned settlement, forsaken(G) like the wilderness;
there the calves graze,(H)
there they lie down;(I)
they strip its branches bare.
11 When its twigs are dry, they are broken off(J)
and women come and make fires(K) with them.
For this is a people without understanding;(L)
so their Maker has no compassion on them,
and their Creator(M) shows them no favor.(N)
