Isaiah 21:15

Isaiah 21:15 in 6 English translations. Each links through to the full chapter for context.

New International Version (NIV)

15They flee from the sword,

from the drawn sword,

from the bent bow

and from the heat of battle.

15For they have fled from the swords,

From the drawn sword, and from the bent bow,

And from the press of battle.

15For they have fled from the swords,

From the drawn sword, and from the bent bow

And from the press of battle.

15For they have fled from the swords,

From the drawn sword, from the bent bow

And from the press of battle and grief of war.

15For they flee from the sword—

the sword that is drawn—

from the bow that is bent,

and from the stress of battle.

15They are running away from where the fighting is heaviest.

That’s where the swords are ready to strike.

That’s where the bows are ready to shoot.
