26 (A)Moreover, the light of the moon will be as the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be sevenfold, as the light of seven days, in the day when (B)the Lord binds up (C)the brokenness of his people, and heals the wounds inflicted by his blow.

27 Behold, the name of the Lord comes from afar,
    burning with his anger, and in thick rising smoke;[a]
his lips are full of fury,
    and his tongue is like a devouring fire;
28 (D)his breath is (E)like an overflowing stream
    that reaches up to the neck;
to sift the nations with the sieve of destruction,
    and to place on the jaws of the peoples (F)a bridle that leads astray.

  1. Isaiah 30:27 Hebrew in weight of uplifted clouds

26 The moon will shine like the sun,(A) and the sunlight will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven full days, when the Lord binds up the bruises of his people and heals(B) the wounds he inflicted.

27 See, the Name(C) of the Lord comes from afar,
    with burning anger(D) and dense clouds of smoke;
his lips are full of wrath,(E)
    and his tongue is a consuming fire.(F)
28 His breath(G) is like a rushing torrent,(H)
    rising up to the neck.(I)
He shakes the nations in the sieve(J) of destruction;
    he places in the jaws of the peoples
    a bit(K) that leads them astray.
