Isaiah 27:1-4

27:1 At that time the Lord will punish

with his destructive, great, and powerful sword

Leviathan the fast-moving serpent,

Leviathan the squirming serpent;

he will kill the sea monster.

27:2 When that time comes,

sing about a delightful vineyard!

27:3 I, the Lord, protect it;

I water it regularly.

I guard it night and day,

so no one can harm it.

27:4 I am not angry.

I wish I could confront some thorns and briers!

Then I would march against them for battle;

I would set them all on fire,
