Isaiah 27:1

Isaiah 27:1

1 In that day the Lord with His severe sword, great and strong,
Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent,
^aLeviathan that twisted serpent;
And He will slay ^bthe reptile that is in the sea.

The Restoration of Israel

2 In that day ^asing to her,
^b“A vineyard of¹ red wine!

3 ^aI, the Lord, keep it,
I water it every moment;
Lest any hurt it,
I keep it night and day.

4 Fury is not in Me.
Who would set ^abriers and thorns
Against Me in battle?
I would go through them,
I would burn them together.
