Isaiah 27:7-11

The Purpose of Israel's Chastisement

Isaiah 27:7-11
7
[ADONAI] will not strike Isra'el, as he did others who struck Isra'el; he will not kill them, as he did the others.
8
Your controversy with her is fully resolved by sending her [into exile]. He removes her with a rough gust of wind on a day when it's blowing from the east.
9
So the iniquity of Ya'akov is atoned for by this, and removing his sin produces this result: he chops up all the altar stones like chalk - sacred poles and sun-pillars stand no more.
10
For the fortified city is alone, abandoned and deserted, like the desert. Calves graze and lie down there, stripping its branches bare.
11
When its harvest dries up, it is broken off; women come and set it on fire. For this is a people without understanding. Therefore he who made them will not pity them, he who formed them will show them no mercy.
