Isaiah 24:1-8

¹Behold, the LORD lays waste the earth

and leaves it in ruins.

He will twist its surface

and scatter its inhabitants —

²people and priest alike, servant and master,

maid and mistress, buyer and seller,

lender and borrower, creditor and debtor.

³The earth will be utterly laid waste

and thoroughly plundered.

⁴The earth mourns and withers;

the world languishes and fades;

the exalted of the earth waste away.

⁵The earth is defiled by its people;

they have transgressed the laws;

they have overstepped the decrees

and broken the everlasting covenant.

⁶Therefore a curse has consumed the earth,

and its inhabitants must bear the guilt;

the earth’s dwellers have been burned,

and only a few survive.

⁷The new wine dries up, the vine withers.

All the merrymakers now groan.

⁸The joyful tambourines have ceased;

the noise of revelers has stopped;

the joyful harp is silent.

— Isaiah 24:1-8
