Isaiah 37:27 in Context — Isaiah 37

25 Eu cavei, e bebi as águas; e com as plantas dos meus pés secarei todos os rios do Egito.

26 Por acaso não ouviste que desde muito antes eu fiz isto, e deste os dias antigos o tinha planejado? Agora eu fiz isto acontecer, para que tu fosses o que destruirias as cidades fortificadas, [reduzindo-as] a amontoados de ruínas.

27 Por isso os moradores delas, com as mãos impotentes, ficaram atemorizados e envergonhados; eram [como] a erva do campo, e a grama verde, o capim dos telhados e o trigo queimado antes de crescer.

28 Porém eu sei o teu sentar, o teu sair, o teu entrar, e o teu furor contra mim.

29 Por causa de teu furor contra mim, e teu tumulto que subiu aos meus ouvidos, por isso porei meu anzol em teu nariz, e meu freio em tua boca; e te farei voltar pelo caminho em que vieste.
