Isaiah 9:17-20

17ThereforeH5921H3651 the LordH136 does 1not rejoiceH8055 overH8055 their youngH970 menH970, 2NorH3808 does He haveH7355 compassionH7355 onH7355 their 3orphansH3490 or their widowsH490; For everyH3605 oneH3605 of them is 4godlessH2611 and an 5evildoerH7489, And everyH3605 6mouthH6310 is speakingH1696 foolishnessH5039. 7In spite of allH3605 thisH2088, His angerH639 does not turnH7725 awayH7725, And His handH3027 is stillH5750 stretchedH5186 outH5186.

188For wickednessH7564 burnsH1197 like a fireH784; It consumesH398 briarsH8068 and thornsH7898; It also setsH3341 the thicketsH5442 of the forestH3293 aflameH3341 And they rollH55 upwardH55 in a columnH1348 of smokeH6227.19By the 9wrathH5678 of the LordH3068 of armiesH6635 the 10landH776 is burnedH6272, And the 11peopleH5971 are like fuelH3980 for the fireH784; NoH3808 12oneH376 sparesH2550 his brotherH251.2013They devourH1504 what is on the rightH3225 handH3225 but are still 14hungryH7456, And 15they eatH398 what is on the leftH8040 handH8040, but they areH7646 not satisfiedH7646; EachH376 of them eatsH398 the 16fleshH1320 of his own armH2220.
