New American Standard Bible 1995International Standard Version
1In that day the LORD will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent, With His fierce and great and mighty sword, Even Leviathan the twisted serpent; And He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.1At that time, with his fierce, mighty, and powerful sword, the LORD will punish the gliding serpent Leviathan—the coiling serpent Leviathan—and he will kill the dragon that's in the sea.
2In that day, "A vineyard of wine, sing of it!2At that time, "A fermenting vineyard— sing about it!
3"I, the LORD, am its keeper; I water it every moment. So that no one will damage it, I guard it night and day.3I, the LORD, watch over it And I water it continuously. I guard it night and day so no one can harm it.
4"I have no wrath. Should someone give Me briars and thorns in battle, Then I would step on them, I would burn them completely.4I am not angry. If only the vineyard could give me briers and thorns to battle, I would march against it, and I would burn it all up.
5"Or let him rely on My protection, Let him make peace with Me, Let him make peace with Me."5Or else let it lay claim to my protection; let it make peace with me, yes, let it make peace with me."
6In the days to come Jacob will take root, Israel will blossom and sprout, And they will fill the whole world with fruit.6In times to come, Jacob will take root, and Israel will blossom, sprout shoots, and fill the whole world with fruit.
7Like the striking of Him who has struck them, has He struck them? Or like the slaughter of His slain, have they been slain?7Has the LORD struck them down, just as he struck down those who struck them? Or have they been killed, just as their killers were killed?
8You contended with them by banishing them, by driving them away. With His fierce wind He has expelled them on the day of the east wind.8Measure by measure, in their exile you contended with them; with his fierce blast he removed them, as on a day when the east wind blows.
9Therefore through this Jacob's iniquity will be forgiven; And this will be the full price of the pardoning of his sin: When he makes all the altar stones like pulverized chalk stones; When Asherim and incense altars will not stand.9By this, then, Jacob's guilt will be atoned for, and this will be the full harvest that comes from the removal of his sin: when he makes all the altar stones like pulverized chalkstones, no Asherah poles or incense altars will be left standing.
10For the fortified city is isolated, A homestead forlorn and forsaken like the desert; There the calf will graze, And there it will lie down and feed on its branches.10For the fortified city stands desolate, a settlement abandoned and forsaken like the desert; calves graze there, and there they lie down and strip bare its branches.
11When its limbs are dry, they are broken off; Women come and make a fire with them, For they are not a people of discernment, Therefore their Maker will not have compassion on them. And their Creator will not be gracious to them.11When its branches are dry, they are broken off, and women come and kindle fires with them, since this is a people who show no consideration. That is why the One who made them shows them no compassion; the One who created them shows them no mercy.
12In that day the LORD will start His threshing from the flowing stream of the Euphrates to the brook of Egypt, and you will be gathered up one by one, O sons of Israel.12At that time, the LORD will winnow grain from the Euphrates River channel to the Wadi of Egypt, and you will be gathered in one by one, O people of Israel.
13It will come about also in that day that a great trumpet will be blown, and those who were perishing in the land of Assyria and who were scattered in the land of Egypt will come and worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.13Furthermore, at that time, a great trumpet will be sounded, and those who were perishing in the land of Assyria and those who had been expelled to the land of Egypt will come and worship the LORD on his holy mountain at Jerusalem.
