And the light of the sun will be sevenfold,
As the light of seven days,
In the day that the Lord binds up the bruise of His people
And heals the stroke of their wound.
Judgment on Assyria
Burning with His anger,
And His burden is heavy;
His lips are full of indignation,
And His tongue like a devouring fire.
bWhich reaches up to the neck,
To sift the nations with the sieve of futility;
And there shall be ca bridle in the jaws of the people,
Causing them to err.
As in the night when a holy festival is kept,
And gladness of heart as when one goes with a flute,
To1 come into athe mountain of the Lord,
To the Mighty One of Israel.
And show the descent of His arm,
With the indignation of His anger
And the flame of a devouring fire,
With scattering, tempest, band hailstones.
Which the Lord lays on him,
It will be with tambourines and harps;
And in battles of abrandishing He will fight with it.
Yes, for the king it is prepared.
He has made it deep and large;
Its pyre is fire with much wood;
The breath of the Lord, like a stream of brimstone,
Kindles it.

Isaiah 30:28
His breath - God's anger. A stream - Coming from him as vehemently, as a mighty torrent of waters. To sift - To shake and scatter, as it were with a sieve. The nations - The Assyrian army, which was made up of several nations. With - Not with an ordinary sieve, which casteth away the chaff only, but with a sieve, which should shake them so long and so vehemently, as to cast away altogether. A bridle - God will over - rule them by his powerful providence. To err - Whereas other bridles guide into the right way, this shall turn them out of the way, by giving them up to their own foolish counsels, which shall bring them to certain ruin.
| << Isaiah 30:27 | Isaiah 30:29 >> |
