Isaiah 1:24-28

²⁴Therefore I, the Commander of the armies of angels, the mighty God of Israel, say to my enemies, 'I will get revenge on you; you will not cause me any more trouble. And I will pay you back for the evil things that you did.

²⁵I will raise my fist to strike you. I will punish you severely MET, as though MET you were silver and I needed to heat you very greatly to melt you and get rid of the impurities.

²⁶After that happens, I will give you good judges like you had previously; you will have wise counselors like you had long ago. Then people will call your city ‘a city where people act righteously,’ a city where people are loyal to me.' ”

²⁷Because the people of Jerusalem will do what is fair/just, their city will be restored; those who repent will be saved because of their acting righteously.

²⁸But rebels and sinners will be crushed by Yahweh, and those who forsake him will disappear.
