Isaiah 9:19-21

Isaiah 9:19-21
The Voice
19 The Eternal, the Commander of heavenly armies,
sets our world on fire in His fury.
The rotten people become kindling for the fire,
turning against one another until no one is spared.
20 They slice off what’s on the right and are still hungry;
they eat what’s on the left and still aren’t satisfied.
And in their voracity, they consume their own.
Ravenous in their greed, no one is spared—not brothers or sisters, not allies or kin.
21 Manasseh and Ephraim devour each other
and turn their covetous eye south, toward Judah.
Still, God’s anger smolders. His hand is raised; there’s more to come.
Isaiah 9:19-21
New International Version
Isaiah 9:19-21
New International Version
19 By the wrath(A) of the Lord Almighty
the land will be scorched(B)
and the people will be fuel for the fire;(C)
they will not spare one another.(D)
20 On the right they will devour,
but still be hungry;(E)
on the left they will eat,(F)
but not be satisfied.
Each will feed on the flesh of their own offspring[a]:
21 Manasseh will feed on Ephraim, and Ephraim on Manasseh;(G)
together they will turn against Judah.(H)
Yet for all this, his anger is not turned away,
his hand is still upraised.(I)
