Isaiah 28:17-19
Modern English Version
17 I shall make justice the measuring line
and righteousness the plummet;
then the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies
and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.
18 Your covenant with death shall be annulled,
and your agreement with hell shall not stand;
when the overflowing scourge passes through,
then you shall be trodden down by it.
19 As often as it passes through, it shall seize you;
for morning by morning it shall pass through,
anytime by day or night.
It shall be terror only
to understand the report.
Isaiah 28:17-19
New International Version
17 I will make justice(A) the measuring line
and righteousness the plumb line;(B)
hail(C) will sweep away your refuge, the lie,
and water will overflow(D) your hiding place.
18 Your covenant with death will be annulled;
your agreement with the realm of the dead will not stand.(E)
When the overwhelming scourge sweeps by,(F)
you will be beaten down(G) by it.
19 As often as it comes it will carry you away;(H)
morning after morning,(I) by day and by night,
it will sweep through.”
The understanding of this message
will bring sheer terror.(J)
