Isaiah 5:24
Rottenness - They shall be like a tree which not only withers in its branches, but dies and rots at the roots, therefore is past recovery. Dust - Shall be resolved into dust, and yield no fruit.
24 Therefore, aas the fire devours the stubble,
And the flame consumes the chaff,
So btheir root will be as rottenness,
And their blossom will ascend like dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
And the flame consumes the chaff,
So btheir root will be as rottenness,
And their blossom will ascend like dust;
Because they have rejected the law of the Lord of hosts,
And despised the word of the Holy One of Israel.
25 aTherefore the anger of the Lord is aroused against His people;
He has stretched out His hand against them
And stricken them,
And bthe hills trembled.
Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets.
cFor all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.
He has stretched out His hand against them
And stricken them,
And bthe hills trembled.
Their carcasses were as refuse in the midst of the streets.
cFor all this His anger is not turned away,
But His hand is stretched out still.
26 aHe will lift up a banner to the nations from afar,
And will bwhistle to them from cthe end of the earth;
Surely dthey shall come with speed, swiftly.
And will bwhistle to them from cthe end of the earth;
Surely dthey shall come with speed, swiftly.
27 No one will be weary or stumble among them,
No one will slumber or sleep;
Nor awill the belt on their loins be loosed,
Nor the strap of their sandals be broken;
No one will slumber or sleep;
Nor awill the belt on their loins be loosed,
Nor the strap of their sandals be broken;
