Isaiah 41:15-17

EasyEnglish Bible

¹⁵ ‘Look at this! I will cause you to destroy your enemies,
    like a heavy weight that threshes grain.^[a]
You will have new sharp metal points that are like teeth.
You will thresh the mountains
    and you will break them into pieces.
You will make the hills become like straw.
¹⁶ You will throw them into the air,
    and the wind will blow them away in all directions!
You will be happy with what the Lord has done for you.
    You will boast that the Holy God of Israel is your God.
¹⁷ Poor and helpless people look for water to drink,
    but there is none.
    They are so thirsty that their tongues are dry.
But I, the Lord, will answer their prayers.
    I, the God of Israel, will not leave them alone.
