Listen to Isaías 5:25
25 Por isso se acendeu a ira do Senhor contra o seu povo, e o Senhor estendeu a sua mão contra ele, e o feriu; e as montanhas tremeram, e os seus cadáveres eram como lixo no meio das ruas; com tudo isto não tornou atrás a sua ira, mas ainda está estendida a sua mão.

Isaías 5:25 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 5:25

Therefore is the anger of the Lord kindled against his
people
His professing people; which character, as it aggravated their sin in rejecting and despising the word of the Lord, so it increased his anger and indignation against them: and he hath stretched forth his hand against them, and hath smitten
them;
which some understand of past judgments and afflictions upon them, under Joash, Amaziah, and Ahaz; and others of future ones, under Shalmaneser and Nebuchadnezzar: and the hills did tremble;
which Jarchi interprets of their kings and princes; or it may be only a figurative expression, setting forth the awfulness of the dispensation: and their carcasses [were] torn in the midst of the streets.
The Targum renders it, "were as dung"; so the Septuagint, Vulgate Latin, and Arabic versions; being slain there, and lying unburied, were trampled upon, and trodden down like "clay", as the Syriac version; or like the mire of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away;
this being abundantly less than their sins deserved; which shows how great were their sins, and how much the Lord was provoked to anger by them: but his hand [is] stretched out still;
to inflict yet sorer judgments. The Targum is

``by all this they turn not from their sins, that his fury may turn from them; but their rebellion grows stronger, and his stroke is again to take vengeance on them;''
which expresses their impenitence and hardness of heart, under the judgments of God, which caused him to take more severe methods with them.

Isaías 5:25 In-Context

23 dos que justificam o ímpio por peitas, e ao inocente lhe tiram o seu direito!
24 Pelo que, como a língua de fogo consome o restolho, e a palha se desfaz na chama assim a raiz deles será como podridão, e a sua flor se esvaecerá como pó; porque rejeitaram a lei do Senhor dos exércitos, e desprezaram a palavra do santo de Israel,
25 Por isso se acendeu a ira do Senhor contra o seu povo, e o Senhor estendeu a sua mão contra ele, e o feriu; e as montanhas tremeram, e os seus cadáveres eram como lixo no meio das ruas; com tudo isto não tornou atrás a sua ira, mas ainda está estendida a sua mão.
26 E ele arvorará um estandarte para as nações de longe, e lhes assobiará desde a extremidade da terra; e eis que virão muito apressadamente.
27 Não há entre eles cansado algum nem quem tropece; ninguém cochila nem dorme; não se lhe desata o cinto dos lombos, nem se lhe quebra a correia dos sapatos.
