Isaiah 27:6-8

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

⁶ In days to come^[a] Jacob shall take root,
    Israel shall blossom and put forth shoots,
    and fill the whole world with fruit.

⁷ Has he struck them down as he struck down those who struck them?
    Or have they been killed as their killers were killed?
⁸ By expulsion,^[b] by exile you struggled against them;
    with his fierce blast he removed them in the day of the east wind.
