Isaiah 28:19

As often as it sweepeth past, it shall take you away, For morning by morning, shall it pass along. By day and by night,—And it shall be nothing less than a terror to make out the message;

The Emphasised Bible by J. B. Rotherham

In The King James Version

From the time that it goeth forth it shall take you: for morning by morning shall it pass over, by day and by night: and it shall be a vexation only to understand the report.

In Context

18So shall be wiped out your covenant with death, And your vision with hades, not stand,—When the overflowing scourge, sweepeth past, then shall ye be thereby beaten down:

20For too short is the couch to stretch oneself out,—And, the coverlet, too narrow, when one draweth up his feet.
