Isaiah 5:25

Therefore is the anger of Jehovah kindled against his people, and he hath stretched out his hand against them and hath smitten them; and the mountains trembled, and their carcases are become as dung in the midst of the streets. For all this his anger is not turned away, and his hand is stretched out still.

Darby Translation

For all this his anger is not turned away, but his hand is stretched out still.
