Darkness and Despair
Isaiah 5:30
Showing verse 30 with surrounding context.
27
none of them tired or stumbling, none of them sleeping or drowsy, none with a loose belt, none with a broken sandal-strap.
28
Their arrows are sharp, all their bows are strung, their horses' hoofs are like flint, and their [chariot] wheels like a whirlwind.
29
They will roar like lions - yes, roaring like young lions, they growl and seize the prey and carry it off, with no one to rescue.
30
On that day they will growl at them, like the sea when it growls - and when one looks toward land, one sees darkness closing in; the light is dissipated in the obscuring overcast.
