Isaiah 17:13-14
International Standard Version
13 The nations roar like the rushing of many waters,[a]
but the Lord[b] will rebuke them,
and they will run far away,
chased like chaff blown down from the mountains
or like thick dust[c] that rolls along,
blown along by a wind storm.
14 When the evening arrives, watch out—sudden terror!
By morning they will be there no longer!
So it will be for those who plunder us
and what will happen to those who rob us.”

Isaiah 17:13-14
New International Version
13 Although the peoples roar(A) like the roar of surging waters,
when he rebukes(B) them they flee(C) far away,
driven before the wind like chaff(D) on the hills,
like tumbleweed before a gale.(E)
14 In the evening, sudden(F) terror!(G)
Before the morning, they are gone!(H)
This is the portion of those who loot us,
the lot of those who plunder us.
