Isaiah 26:21-27:9 (6th Hour)
- 21
- For behold, the Lord comes out of His place to punish the inhabitants of the earth for their iniquity; the earth will also disclose her blood, and will no more cover her slain.
- 1
- In that day the Lord with His severe sword, great and strong, will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, Leviathan that twisted serpent; and He will slay the reptile that is in the sea.
- 2
- In that day sing to her, “A vineyard of red wine!
- 3
- I, the Lord, keep it, I water it every moment; lest any hurt it, I keep it night and day.
- 4
- Fury is not in Me. Who would set briers and thorns against Me in battle? I would go through them, I would burn them together.
- 5
- Or let him take hold of My strength, that he may make peace with Me; and he shall make peace with Me.”
- 6
- Those who come He shall cause to take root in Jacob; Israel shall blossom and bud, and fill the face of the world with fruit.
- 7
- Has He struck Israel as He struck those who struck him? Or has He been slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by Him?
- 8
- In measure, by sending it away, you contended with it. He removes it by His rough wind in the day of the east wind.
- 9
- Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be covered; and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin: when he makes all the stones of the altar like chalkstones that are beaten to dust, wooden images and incense altars shall not stand.
