Isaiah 9:18-20

Contemporary English Version

¹⁸ Evil had spread like a raging forest fire sending thornbushes up in smoke. ¹⁹ The Lord All-Powerful was angry and used the people as fuel for a fire that scorched the land. They turned against each other ²⁰ like wild animals attacking and eating everyone around them, even their own relatives.^[a] But still they were not satisfied.
