Isaiah 27, verse 2. ²In that day, there shall be a beautiful vineyard, and a desire to begin a hymn against a city: Isaiah 27, verse 3. ³“I am a strong city, a besieged city; I water it in vain; for it shall be taken at night, and its wall shall fall by day. Isaiah 27, verse 4. ⁴There is no woman who has not taken hold of it. Who will appoint me to guard straw in a field? I rejected it because of this enemy. For that very reason therefore, the Lord God did all the things He ordered. I am burned down.” Isaiah 27, verse 5. ⁵Those who dwell in it will cry out, “Let us make peace with Him, let us make peace.” Isaiah 27, verse 6. ⁶Those who come are the children of Jacob.

Isaiah 27, verse 9. ⁹Therefore the lawlessness of Jacob will be removed; and this is his blessing when I take away his sin, when they make all the stones of the altars beaten like fine dust. Their trees do not remain, and their idols shall be cut down like a distant forest. Isaiah 27, verse 10. ¹⁰The flock that dwelt there shall be left like an abandoned flock, and for a long time the field will be for pasture; and there flocks shall lie down to rest.
