Isaiah 9:17-19
Legacy Standard Bible
17 Therefore the Lord (A)is not glad in their choice men,
(B)Nor does He have compassion on their [a]orphans or their widows;
For every one of them is (C)godless and an (D)evildoer,
And every (E)mouth is speaking wicked foolishness.
(F)In spite of all this, His anger does not turn back,
And His hand is still stretched out.
18 (G)For wickedness burns like a fire;
It consumes briars and thorns;
It even sets the thickets of the forest aflame,
And they roll upward in a column of smoke.
19 By the (H)fury of Yahweh of hosts the (I)land is burned up,
And the (J)people are like fuel for the fire;
No (K)man spares his brother.

every mouth speaks folly.(E)
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.(F)

it consumes briers and thorns,(H)

the land will be scorched(K)
and the people will be fuel for the fire;(L)
they will not spare one another.(M)
