Isaiah 24:1-6 (Complete Jewish Bible)
View In My Bible
1
Look! ADONAI is stripping and destroying the land, turning it upside down and scattering its inhabitants
2
cohen and commoner, slave and master, maid and mistress, buyer and seller, lender and borrower, creditor and debtor.
3
The land will be completely stripped, completely plundered, for ADONAI has spoken this word.
4
The land fades and withers, the world wilts and withers, the exalted of the land languish.
5
The land lies defiled under its inhabitants; because they have transgressed the teachings, changed the law and broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore a curse is devouring the land, and its inhabitants are punished for their guilt. It is why those living there waste away, and the people left are few.
