Isaiah 30:28 in Context — Isaiah 30

26 E a luz da lua será como a luz do sol, e a luz do sol será sete vezes maior, como a luz de sete dias, quando o SENHOR atar a fratura de seu povo, e curar a chaga de sua ferida.

27 Eis que o nome do SENHOR vem de longe; sua ira está ardendo, e a carga é pesada; seus lábios estão cheios de ira, e sua língua está como um fogo consumidor.

28 E seu sopro como um rio que inunda, chegando até o pescoço, para sacudir as nações com a peneira da inutilidade; e um freio nos queixos dos povos [os] fará andar perdidos.

29 Um cântico haverá entre vós, tal como na noite em que se santifica uma festa; haverá também alegria de coração, tal como aquele que anda com uma flauta para vir ao monte do SENHOR, à Rocha de Israel.

30 E o SENHOR fará com que ouçam a glória de sua voz, e com que vejam a descida de seu braço, com indignação de ira, e labareda de fogo consumidor, raios, tempestade, e pedra de granizo.
