Isaiah 28:2-8
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 28
2
Behold, the Lord has a strong and mighty
agent;
As a storm of hail, a tempest of destruction,
Like a storm of mighty overflowing waters,
He has thrown
it
down to the earth with
His
hand.
3
The splendid crown of the habitually drunk of Ephraim is trampled underfoot.
4
And the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
Which is at the head of the fertile valley,
Will be like the first-ripe fig prior to the summer,
Which one sees,
And
as soon as it is in his hand,
He swallows it.
5
On that day the
Lord
of armies will become a beautiful crown
And a glorious wreath to the remnant of His people;
6
A spirit of justice for him who sits in judgment,
A strength to those who repel the onslaught at the gate.
7
And these also reel with wine and stagger from intoxicating drink:
The priest and the prophet reel with intoxicating drink,
They are confused by wine, they stagger from intoxicating drink;
They reel while having visions,
They stagger
when rendering
a verdict.
8
For all the tables are full of filthy vomit, without a
single clean
place.
King James Version
Chapter 28
2
Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one, which as a tempest of hail and a destroying storm, as a flood of mighty waters overflowing, shall cast down to the earth with the hand.
3
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim, shall be trodden under feet:
4
And the glorious beauty, which is on the head of the fat valley, shall be a fading flower, and as the hasty fruit before the summer; which when he that looketh upon it seeth, while it is yet in his hand he eateth it up.
5
In that day shall the
Lord
of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,
6
And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.
7
But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.
8
For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 28
2
Look, the Lord has a strong and mighty one —
like a devastating hail storm,
like a storm with strong flooding water.
He will bring it across the land with his hand.
3
The majestic crown of Ephraim’s drunkards
will be trampled underfoot.
4
The fading flower of his beautiful splendor,
which is on the summit above the rich valley,
will be like a ripe fig before the summer harvest.
Whoever sees it will swallow it
while it is still in his hand.
5
On that day
the
Lord
of Armies will become a crown of beauty
and a diadem of splendor
to the remnant of his people,
6
a spirit of justice
to the one who sits in judgment,
and strength
to those who repel attacks at the city gate.
7
Even these stagger because of wine
and stumble under the influence of beer:
priest and prophet stagger because of beer,
they are confused by wine.
They stumble because of beer,
they are muddled in their visions,
they stumble in their judgments.
8
Indeed, all their tables are covered with vomit;
there is no place without a stench.
New Living Translation
Chapter 28
2
For the Lord will send a mighty army against it.
Like a mighty hailstorm and a torrential rain,
they will burst upon it like a surging flood
and smash it to the ground.
3
The proud city of Samaria —
the glorious crown of the drunks of Israel —
will be trampled beneath its enemies’ feet.
4
It sits at the head of a fertile valley,
but its glorious beauty will fade like a flower.
Whoever sees it will snatch it up,
as an early fig is quickly picked and eaten.
5
Then at last the
Lord
of Heaven’s Armies
will himself be Israel’s glorious crown.
He will be the pride and joy
of the remnant of his people.
6
He will give a longing for justice
to their judges.
He will give great courage
to their warriors who stand at the gates.
7
Now, however, Israel is led by drunks
who reel with wine and stagger with alcohol.
The priests and prophets stagger with alcohol
and lose themselves in wine.
They reel when they see visions
and stagger as they render decisions.
8
Their tables are covered with vomit;
filth is everywhere.
English Standard Version
Chapter 28
2
Behold, the Lord has one who is mighty and strong;
like a storm of hail, a destroying tempest,
like a storm of mighty, overflowing waters,
he casts down to the earth with his hand.
3
The proud crown of the drunkards of Ephraim
will be trodden underfoot;
4
and the fading flower of its glorious beauty,
which is on the head of the rich valley,
will be like a first-ripe fig before the summer:
when someone sees it, he swallows it
as soon as it is in his hand.
5
In that day the
Lord
of hosts will be a crown of glory,
and a diadem of beauty, to the remnant of his people,
6
and a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment,
and strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7
These also reel with wine
and stagger with strong drink;
the priest and the prophet reel with strong drink,
they are swallowed by wine,
they stagger with strong drink,
they reel in vision,
they stumble in giving judgment.
8
For all tables are full of filthy vomit,
with no space left.
New International Version
Chapter 28
2
See, the Lord has one who is powerful and strong.
Like a hailstorm and a destructive wind,
like a driving rain and a flooding downpour,
he will throw it forcefully to the ground.
3
That wreath, the pride of Ephraim’s drunkards,
will be trampled underfoot.
4
That fading flower, his glorious beauty,
set on the head of a fertile valley,
will be like figs ripe before harvest—
as soon as people see them and take them in hand,
they swallow them.
5
In that day the
Lord
Almighty
will be a glorious crown,
a beautiful wreath
for the remnant of his people.
6
He will be a spirit of justice
to the one who sits in judgment,
a source of strength
to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7
And these also stagger from wine
and reel from beer:
Priests and prophets stagger from beer
and are befuddled with wine;
they reel from beer,
they stagger when seeing visions,
they stumble when rendering decisions.
8
All the tables are covered with vomit
and there is not a spot without filth.
New King James Version
Chapter 28
2
Behold, the Lord has a mighty and strong one,
Like a tempest of hail and a destroying storm,
Like a flood of mighty waters overflowing,
Who will bring
them
down to the earth with
His
hand.
3
The crown of pride, the drunkards of Ephraim,
Will be trampled underfoot;
4
And the glorious beauty is a fading flower
Which
is
at the head of the verdant valley,
Like the first fruit before the summer,
Which an observer sees;
He eats it up while it is still in his hand.
5
In that day the
Lord
of hosts will be
For a crown of glory and a diadem of beauty
To the remnant of His people,
6
For a spirit of justice to him who sits in judgment,
And for strength to those who turn back the battle at the gate.
7
But they also have erred through wine,
And through intoxicating drink are out of the way;
The priest and the prophet have erred through intoxicating drink,
They are swallowed up by wine,
They are out of the way through intoxicating drink;
They err in vision, they stumble
in
judgment.
8
For all tables are full of vomit
and
filth;
No place
is clean.
