Isaiah 28:19-21
New International Reader's Version
19 As often as it comes, it will carry you away.
Morning after morning, day and night,
it will come to punish you.”
If you understand this message,
it will bring you absolute terror.
20 You will be like someone whose bed is too short to lie down on.
You will be like those whose blankets are too small to wrap themselves in.
21 The Lord will rise up to judge, just as he did at Mount Perazim.
He will get up to act, just as he did in the Valley of Gibeon.
He’ll do his work, but it will be strange work.
He’ll carry out his task, but it will be an unexpected one.
Isaiah 28:19-21
New International Version
19 As often as it comes it will carry you away;(A)
morning after morning,(B) by day and by night,
it will sweep through.”
The understanding of this message
will bring sheer terror.(C)
20 The bed is too short to stretch out on,
the blanket too narrow to wrap around you.(D)
21 The Lord will rise up as he did at Mount Perazim,(E)
he will rouse himself as in the Valley of Gibeon(F)—
to do his work,(G) his strange work,
and perform his task, his alien task.
