Isaiah 10:1-7 Contemporary English Version Anglicised (CEVUK00)

1. You people are in for trouble! You have made cruel and unfair laws

2. that let you cheat the poor and needy and rob widows and orphans.

3. But what will you do when you are fiercely attacked and punished by foreigners? Where will you run for help? Where will you hide your valuables?

4. How will you escape being captured or killed? The Lord is still angry, and he isn't through with you yet!

5. The Lord says:I am furious! And I will use the king of Assyria as a club

6. to beat down you godless people. I am angry with you, and I will send him to attack you. He will take what he wants and walk on you like mud in the streets.

7. He has even bigger plans in mind, because he wants to destroy many nations.
