Isaiah 37:26-28
Legacy Standard Bible
26 (A)Have you not heard?
Long ago I did it;
From days of old I (B)formed it.
Now (C)I have brought it to pass,
That (D)you should devastate fortified cities into (E)ruinous heaps.
27 So their inhabitants were short of power;
They were dismayed and put to shame;
They were as the (F)plant of the field and as the green herb,
As (G)grass on the rooftops [a]is scorched before it rises.
28 But I (H)know your sitting down
And your going out and your coming in
And your raging against Me.

Isaiah 37:26-28
New International Version
26 “Have you not heard?
Long ago I ordained(A) it.
In days of old I planned(B) it;
now I have brought it to pass,
that you have turned fortified cities
into piles of stone.(C)
27 Their people, drained of power,
are dismayed and put to shame.
They are like plants in the field,
like tender green shoots,
like grass(D) sprouting on the roof,(E)
scorched[a] before it grows up.
