Isaiah 30:28 in Context — Isaiah 30

26 Y la luz de la luna será como la luz del sol, y la luz del sol siete veces mayor, como la luz de siete días, el día que soldará Jehová la quebradura de su pueblo, y curará la llaga de su herida.

27 He aquí que el nombre de Jehová viene de lejos: su rostro encendido, y grave de sufrir; sus labios llenos de ira, y su lengua como fuego que consume;

28 Y su aliento, cual torrente que inunda: llegará hasta el cuello, para zarandear las gentes con criba de destrucción; y el freno [estará] en las quijadas de los pueblos, haciéndo[les] errar.

29 Vosotros tendréis canción, como en noche en que se celebra pascua; y alegría de corazón, como el que va con flauta para venir al monte de Jehová, al Fuerte de Israel.

30 Y Jehová hará oir su voz potente, y hará ver el descender de su brazo, con furor de rostro, y llama de fuego consumidor; con dispersión, con avenida, y piedra de granizo.
