Isaiah 27
27
1In that day the Lord with His severe sword, great and strong,
Will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent,
#Gen. 3:1; Ps. 74:13, 14; Rev. 12:9, 15Leviathan that twisted serpent;
And He will slay #Is. 51:9; Ezek. 29:3; 32:2the reptile that is in the sea.
The Restoration of Israel
2In that day #Is. 5:1sing to her,
#Ps. 80:8; Is. 5:7; Jer. 2:21“A vineyard of red wine!
3#1 Sam. 2:9; Ps. 121:4, 5; Is. 31:5; (John 10:28)I, the Lord, keep it,
I water it every moment;
Lest any hurt it,
I keep it night and day.
4Fury is not in Me.
Who would set #2 Sam. 23:6; Is. 9:18briers and thorns
Against Me in battle?
I would go through them,
I would burn them together.
5Or let him take hold #Is. 25:4of My strength,
That he may #Job 22:21; Is. 26:3, 12; (Rom. 5:1; 2 Cor. 5:20)make peace with Me;
And he shall make peace with Me.”
6Those who come He shall cause #Is. 37:31; Hos. 14:5, 6to take root in Jacob;
Israel shall blossom and bud,
And fill the face of the world with fruit.
7#Is. 10:12, 17; 30:30–33Has He struck Israel as He struck those who struck him?
Or has He been slain according to the slaughter of those who were slain by Him?
8#Job 23:6; Ps. 6:1; Jer. 10:24; 30:11; 46:28; (1 Cor. 10:13)In measure, by sending it away,
You contended with it.
#(Ps. 78:38)He removes it by His rough wind
In the day of the east wind.
9Therefore by this the iniquity of Jacob will be covered;
And this is all the fruit of taking away his sin:
When he makes all the stones of the altar
Like chalkstones that are beaten to dust,
Wooden images and incense altars shall not stand.
10Yet the fortified city will be #Is. 5:6, 17; 32:14; Jer. 26:18desolate,
The habitation forsaken and left like a wilderness;
There the calf will feed, and there it will lie down
And consume its branches.
11When its boughs are withered, they will be broken off;
The women come and set them on fire.
For #Deut. 32:28; Is. 1:3it is a people of no understanding;
Therefore He who made them will #Is. 9:17not have mercy on them,
And #Deut. 32:18; Is. 43:1, 7; 44:2, 21, 24He who formed them will show them no favor.
12And it shall come to pass in that day
That the Lord will thresh,
From the channel of the River to the Brook of Egypt;
And you will be #(Is. 11:11; 56:8)gathered one by one,
O you children of Israel.
13#Is. 2:11So it shall be in that day:
#Lev. 25:9; 1 Chr. 15:24; Matt. 24:31; Rev. 11:15The great trumpet will be blown;
They will come, who are about to perish in the land of Assyria,
And they who are outcasts in the land of #Is. 19:21, 22Egypt,
And shall #(Is. 2:3); Zech. 14:16; (Heb. 12:22)worship the Lord in the holy mount at Jerusalem.

Isaiah 27
27
The Deliverance of Israel
1In that day the Lord will punish Leviathan the fleeing serpent
With His fierce and great and mighty sword [rescuing Israel from her enemy],
Even Leviathan the twisted serpent;
And He will kill the dragon who lives in the sea.
2In that day [it will be said of the redeemed nation of Israel],
“A vineyard of #So DSS; MT reads beauty.wine, sing in praise of it!
3I, the Lord, am its Keeper;
I water it every moment.
So that no one will harm it,
I guard it night and day.
4I have no wrath.
Should anyone give Me briars and thorns in battle,
I would step on them, I would set them all on fire.
5Or let him (Israel) cling to My strength and rely on My protection [My stronghold],
Let him make peace with Me,
Let him make peace with Me.”
6 # Lit Those coming, Jacob. In the generations to come Jacob will take root;
Israel will blossom and sprout,
And they will fill the surface of the world with fruit.
7Like the striking #Or of him, referring to an enemy of Israel.by Him who has struck them, has He struck them?
Or like the slaughter of His slain, have they been slain?
8You contended with them by exile, by driving them away [from Canaan];
He has expelled them with His fierce wind on the day of the east wind.
9Therefore through this the wickedness [the sin, the injustice, the wrongdoing] of Jacob (Israel) will be atoned for and forgiven;
And this will be #Lit all the fruit.the full price [that God requires] for taking away his sin:
When Israel makes all the stones of the [pagan] altars like crushed chalk stones;
When the Asherim and the incense altars will not stand.
10For the fortified city is isolated,
A settlement deserted and abandoned like the desert;
There the calf will graze,
And there it will lie down and #Lit consume.feed on its branches.
11When its branches are dry, they are broken off;
The women come and #Lit set light to.make a fire with them.
For they are not a people of understanding,
Therefore He who made them will not have compassion on them,
And He who created them will not be gracious to them.
12In that day the Lord will thresh [out His grain] from the flowing stream of the River [Euphrates] to the Brook of Egypt, and you will be gathered up one by one, O sons of Israel. 13It will come to pass in that day that a great trumpet will be blown, and those who were lost and perishing in the land of Assyria and who were scattered in the land of Egypt will come and worship the Lord on the holy mountain at Jerusalem.
