Isaiah 28:19-21

Expanded Bible

¹⁹ Whenever ·punishment [^Lit] comes, it will take you away.
    It will come morning after morning;
    it will ·defeat you [sweep through] by day and by night.
Those who understand this punishment will be terrified.”
²⁰ ·You will be like the person who tried to sleep
    on a bed that was too short [^LFor the bed is too short to stretch out on]
and ·with a blanket that [^Lthe blanket] was too narrow
    to wrap around himself.
²¹ The Lord will ·fight [^Lrise up] as he did at Mount Perazim [2 Sam. 5:20].
    He will be ·angry [rouse himself] as he was in the Valley of Gibeon [Josh. 10:10–14].
He will do his work, his ·strange [peculiar] work.
    He will finish his job, his ·strange [unusual] job.
