Isaiah 27
27
1In that day the LORD with his sore and great and strong sword shall punish leviathan the swift serpent, and leviathan the crooked serpent; and he shall slay the dragon that is in the sea. 2In that day: A vineyard of wine, sing ye unto it. 3I the LORD do keep it; I will water it every moment: lest any hurt it, I will keep it night and day. 4Fury is not in me: would that the briers and thorns were against me in battle! I would march upon them, I would burn them together. 5Or else let him take hold of my strength, that he may make peace with me; yea, let him make peace with me. 6In days to come shall Jacob take root; Israel shall blossom and bud: and they shall fill the face of the world with fruit.
7Hath he smitten him as he smote those that smote him? or is he slain according to the slaughter of them that were slain by him? 8In measure, when thou sendest her away, thou dost contend with her; he hath removed her with his rough blast in the day of the east wind. 9Therefore by this shall the iniquity of Jacob be purged, and this is all the fruit of taking away his sin; when he maketh all the stones of the altar as chalkstones that are beaten in sunder, so that the Asherim and the sun-images shall rise no more. 10For the defenced city is solitary, an habitation deserted and forsaken, like the wilderness: there shall the calf feed, and there shall he lie down, and consume the branches thereof. 11When the boughs thereof are withered, they shall be broken off; the women shall come, and set them on fire: for it is a people of no understanding; therefore he that made them will not have compassion upon them, and he that formed them will shew them no favour. 12And it shall come to pass in that day, that the LORD shall beat off his fruit, from the flood of the River unto the brook of Egypt, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye children of Israel. 13And it shall come to pass in that day, that a great trumpet shall be blown; and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and they that were outcasts in the land of Egypt; and they shall worship the LORD in the holy mountain at Jerusalem.

Yeshayah 27
27
1In Yom Hahu Hashem with His cherev hakashah v'hagedolah v'hachazakah (terrible and great and strong sword) shall punish Leviathan the Nachash bari'ach (fleeing serpent), even Leviathan that Nachash akallaton (crooked serpent); and He shall slay the Tanin (serpent, devouring sea monster) that is in the sea.
2In Yom Hahu sing ye about her, A kerem (vineyard) of fruitfulness.
3I Hashem do watch over it; I will water it continually; lest any harm it, I will guard it lailah va'yom.
4Chemah (wrath, fury) is not in Me; but if there were briers and thorns set against Me in milchamah, I would march through it, I would burn it together.
5Or let him#27:5 the enemy of My vineyard, the “brier” or “thorn” take hold of My ma'oz (stronghold, protection) that he may make shalom with Me; yes, he shall make shalom with Me.
6He shall cause them that come of Ya'akov to take root; Yisroel shall blossom and bud, and fill with fruit the face of the tevel.
7Hath He struck it,#27:7 Israel as He struck down those that struck it? Or is it#27:7 Israel slain like the slaying of them that are slain by Him?
8In measure, in the sending#27:8 of Yehudah away,#27:8 in the Golus Thou dost contend with her. By His hard wind He removes her in the Yom Kadim (day of the east wind).
9By this therefore shall kapporah be made for the avon Ya'akov; and this is full fruitage to take away#27:9 Yehudahʼs chattat; when He maketh all the stones of the [heathen] mizbe'ach like chalk stones crushed to pieces, the Asherim poles and pagan incense altars shall arise no more.
10Yet the Ir Betzurah (fortified city) shall be desolate, and the habitation forsaken, and left like a midbar; there shall the egel graze, and there shall it lie down, and strip bare the branches thereof.
11When the boughs thereof are dry, they shall be broken off; the nashim come, and set them on fire; for it is a people of no understanding; therefore He that made them will not have compassion on them, and He that formed them will show them no favor.
12And it shall come to pass in Yom Hahu, that Hashem shall thresh from the flowing Nahar (i.e. [Euphrates] River) unto the Wadi Mitzrayim, and ye shall be gathered one by one, O ye Bnei Yisroel.
13And it shall come to pass in Yom Hahu, that the shofar gadol shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in Eretz Ashur (Assyria), and those of the Golus of Eretz Mitzrayim, and shall worship Hashem in the Har HaKodesh in Yerushalayim.
