Isaiah 28:2-4
Common English Bible
2 Look! The Lord has someone who is powerful and strong;
like a hailstorm, a disastrous tempest,
like a downpour of mighty, overflowing waters,
he can level them to the ground with his hand.
3 The majestic garland of Ephraim’s drunks
will be trampled underfoot.
4 The withered flower, which is a thing of beauty[a]
as it sits on the head of those bloated with fat,[b]
will be like an early fig before the summer harvest:
whoever sees it swallows it as soon as it is in hand.
