Isaiah 27:13

 1 In that day,   the Lord will punish with his sword  — his fierce, great and powerful sword— Leviathan   the gliding serpent,   Leviathan the coiling serpent; he will slay the monster   of the sea. 2 In that day  — “Sing   about a fruitful vineyard:    3     I, the Lord, watch over it; I water   it continually. I guard   it day and night so that no one may harm   it.  4     I am not angry. If only there were briers and thorns confronting me! I would march against them in battle; I would set them all on fire.    5 Or else let them come to me for refuge;   let them make peace   with me, yes, let them make peace with me.”  6 In days to come Jacob will take root,   Israel will bud and blossom   and fill all the world with fruit.    7 Has the Lord struck her as he struck   down those who struck her? Has she been killed as those were killed who killed her?  8 By warfare  and exile   you contend with her— with his fierce blast he drives her out, as on a day the east wind   blows.  9 By this, then, will Jacob’s guilt be atoned   for, and this will be the full fruit of the removal of his sin:   When he makes all the altar stones   to be like limestone crushed to pieces, no Asherah poles    or incense altars   will be left standing.  10 The fortified city stands desolate,   an abandoned settlement, forsaken   like the wilderness; there the calves graze,   there they lie down;   they strip its branches bare.  11 When its twigs are dry, they are broken off   and women come and make fires   with them. For this is a people without understanding;   so their Maker has no compassion on them, and their Creator   shows them no favor.   12 In that day the Lord will thresh   from the flowing Euphrates to the Wadi of Egypt,   and you, Israel, will be gathered   up one by one. 13 And in that day   a great trumpet   will sound. Those who were perishing in Assyria and those who were exiled   in Egypt   will come and worship   the Lord on the holy mountain   in Jerusalem.

From Wikipedia: 

The New International Version (NIV) is an English translation of the Bible first published in 1978 by Biblica (formerly the International Bible Society). The NIV was published to meet the need for a modern translation done by Bible scholars using the earliest, highest quality manuscripts available. Of equal importance was that the Bible be expressed in broadly understood modern English.

The NIV is published by Zondervan in the United States and Hodder & Stoughton in the UK. The NIV was updated in 1984 and 2011 and has become one of the most popular and best-selling modern translations.
