Isaiah 66:15-17
Amplified Bible
15
For indeed, the Lord will come in fire
And His chariots will be like the stormy wind,
To render His anger with rage,
And His rebuke with flames of fire.
16
For the Lord will execute judgment by fire
And by His sword on all mankind,
And those slain by the Lord will be many.
17
“Those who [vainly attempt to] sanctify and cleanse themselves to go to the gardens [to sacrifice to idols],
Following after [a]one in the center,
Who eat swine’s flesh, [b]detestable things and mice,
Will come to an end together,” says the Lord.
