Isaiah 9:19-21

New International Reader's Version

¹⁹The Lord rules over all.
    When he gets angry, he will burn up the land.
The people will burn in the fire.
    They will not spare one another.
²⁰People will eat up everything they can find on their right.
    But they’ll still be hungry.
They will eat everything they can find on their left.
    But they won’t be satisfied.
So they will eat the dead bodies of their children.
²¹    That’s what Manasseh’s people will do to Ephraim.
And that’s what Ephraim’s people will do to Manasseh.
    Together they will turn against Judah.

Even then, the Lord is still angry.
His hand is still raised against them.
