Isaiah 27:2-13

Isaiah 27:2-13

[2] In that day  ye unto her, A vineyard  [3] I the LORD  do keep  it; I will water  it every moment:  lest any hurt  it, I will keep  it night  and day.  [4] Fury  is not in me: who would set  the briers  and thorns  against me in battle?  I would go  through them, I would burn  them together.  [5] Or let him take hold  of my strength,  that he may make  peace  with me; and he shall make  peace  with me. [6] He shall cause them that come  of Jacob  to take root:  Israel  shall blossom  and bud,  and fill  the face  of the world  with fruit.  [7] Hath he smitten  him, as he smote  those that smote  him? or is he slain  according to the slaughter  of them that are slain  [8] In measure,  when it shooteth forth,  thou wilt debate  with it: he stayeth  his rough  wind  in the day  of the east wind.  [9] By this  therefore shall the iniquity  of Jacob  be purged;  and this is all the fruit  to take away  his sin;  when he maketh  all the stones  of the altar  as chalkstones  that are beaten in sunder,  the groves  and images  shall not stand up.  [10] Yet the defenced  city  shall be desolate,  and the habitation  forsaken,  and left  like a wilderness:  there shall the calf  feed,  and there shall he lie down,  and consume  the branches  [11] When the boughs  thereof are withered,  they shall be broken off:  the women  come,  and set them on fire:  for it is a people  of no understanding:  therefore he that made  them will not have mercy  on them, and he that formed  them will shew them no favour.  [12] And it shall come to pass in that day,  shall beat off  from the channel  of the river  unto the stream  of Egypt,  and ye shall be gathered  one  O ye children  of Israel.  [13] And it shall come to pass in that day,  that the great  trumpet  shall be blown,  and they shall come  which were ready to perish  in the land  of Assyria,  and the outcasts  in the land  of Egypt,  and shall worship  the LORD  in the holy  mount  at Jerusalem.
