Isaías 28:2

2 Vejam! O Senhor envia alguém que é poderoso e forte.Como chuva de granizo e vento destruidor,como violento aguaceiro e tromba d'água inundante,ele a lançará com força ao chão.

Isaías 28:2 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 28:2

Behold, the Lord hath a mighty and strong one
That is, a powerful king, with a mighty army, meaning Shalmaneser king of Assyria; whom the Lord had at his beck and command, and could use at his pleasure, as his instrument, to bring down the towering pride of Ephraim, and chastise him for his sensuality: [which] as a tempest of hail;
that beats down herbs and plants, and branches of trees, and men and beasts: [and] a destroying storm;
which carries all before it, blows down houses and trees, and makes terrible devastation wherever it comes: as a flood of mighty waters overflowing;
whose torrent is so strong there is no stopping it: so this mighty and powerful prince shall cast down to the earth with the hand;
the crown of pride, the people of Israel, and the king of it; he shall take the crown from his head, and cast it to the ground with a strong hand, as the Jews interpret it, with great violence; or very easily, with one hand, as it were, without any trouble at all. The Targum is,

``so shall people come against them, and remove them out of their own land into another land, because of the sins which were in their hands;''

see ( Isaiah 8:7 ) .

Isaías 28:2 In-Context

1 Ai daquela coroa situada nos altos de um vale fértil,orgulho dos bêbados de Efraim!Ai de sua magnífica beleza,que agora é como uma flor murcha.Ai dos que são dominados pelo vinho!

2 Vejam! O Senhor envia alguém que é poderoso e forte.Como chuva de granizo e vento destruidor,como violento aguaceiro e tromba d'água inundante,ele a lançará com força ao chão.

3 A coroa orgulhosa dos bêbados de Efraimserá pisoteada.

4 Sua magnífica beleza,localizada na cabeça de um vale fértil,é agora uma flor que murcha.Ela será como figo maduro antes da colheita;quem o vê, logo o apanha e o come.

5 Naquele dia, o SENHOR dos Exércitosserá uma coroa gloriosa, um belo diademapara o remanescente do seu povo.
