Isaiah 27:1-7

1 At that time the Lord will punish Leviathan, the gliding snake. He will punish Leviathan, the coiled snake, with his great and hard and powerful sword. He will kill the monster in the sea.
2 At that time people will sing about the pleasant vineyard.
3 "I, the Lord, will care for that vineyard; I will water it at the right time. No one will hurt it, because I will guard it day and night.
4 I am not angry. If anyone builds a wall of thornbushes in war, I will march to it and burn it.
5 But if anyone comes to me for safety and wants to make peace with me, he should come and make peace with me."
6 In the days to come, the people of Jacob will be like a plant with good roots; Israel will grow like a plant beginning to bloom. Then the world will be filled with their children.
7 The Lord has not hurt his people as he hurt their enemies; his people have not been killed like those who tried to kill them.
