Yesaya 26:20-21

26:20 Go, my people! Enter your inner rooms!

Close your doors behind you!

Hide for a little while,

until his angry judgment is over! ¹ 

26:21 For look, the Lord is coming out of the place where he lives, ² 

to punish the sin of those who live on the earth.

The earth will display the blood shed on it;

it will no longer cover up its slain. ³ 

[26:20]  ¹ tn Heb “until anger passes by.”

[26:21]  ² tn Heb “out of his place” (so KJV, ASV).

[26:21]  ³ sn This implies that rampant bloodshed is one of the reasons for divine judgment. See the note at 24:5.
