Isaiah 28:17-19
Darby Translation
17 And I will appoint judgment for a line, and righteousness for a plummet; and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding-place.
18 And your covenant with death shall be annulled, and your agreement with Sheol shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, ye shall be trodden down by it.
19 As it passeth through it shall take you; for morning by morning shall it pass through, by day and by night; and it shall be terror only to understand the report.

Isaiah 28:17-19
New International Version
17 I will make justice(A) the measuring line
and righteousness the plumb line;(B)
hail(C) will sweep away your refuge, the lie,
and water will overflow(D) your hiding place.
18 Your covenant with death will be annulled;
your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand.(E)
When the overwhelming scourge sweeps by,(F)
you will be beaten down(G) by it.
19 As often as it comes it will carry you away;(H)
morning after morning,(I) by day and by night,
it will sweep through.”
The understanding of this message
will bring sheer terror.(J)
