Isaiah 27:9-11

The Voice

⁹In this way, the people descended from Jacob will have their sins forgiven.
This is how they’ll pay in full the penalty for their wrongdoing—
When God crumbles all the stones of their altars into dust like chalk,
and when not one of their sacred poles and incense altars is left standing.

¹⁰The city that had been so strong and vibrant
    is isolated and alone, abandoned, a deserted wilderness.
Calves munch through it, lounging around
    and eating whatever twigs dare to shoot up.
¹¹When the branches are dead and dried and broken,
    women will gather and burn them up.
For these people are foolish and lack understanding,
    so their Creator will not be compassionate toward them.
Though He made them, He will not show them favor.
