Isaiah 28:20-22

New International Reader's Version

²⁰ You will be like someone whose bed is too short to lie down on.
    You will be like those whose blankets are too small to wrap themselves in.
²¹ The Lord will rise up to judge, just as he did at Mount Perazim.
    He will get up to act, just as he did in the Valley of Gibeon.
He’ll do his work, but it will be strange work.
    He’ll carry out his task, but it will be an unexpected one.
²² Now stop making fun of me.
    If you don’t, your chains will become heavier.
The Lord who rules over all has spoken to me.
    The Lord has told me he has ordered that the whole land be destroyed.
