Isaiah

Isaiah 11:13–15

13Then the jealousy of Ephraimf will depart,

and the adversariesg of Judah will be cut off.

Ephraim will no longer envy Judah,

nor will Judah harass Ephraim.

14They will swoop down on the slopes of the Philistines to the west;

together they will plunder the sons of the east.

They will lay their hands on Edom and Moab,

and the Ammonites will be subject to them.

15The LORD will devote to destructionh

the gulfi of the Sea of Egypt;

with a scorching wind He will sweep His hand

over the Euphrates.j

He will split it into seven streams

for men to cross with dry sandals.
