Isaiah 10:18

18 Its abundant forest and farmland will be finished completely, as when a sick person wastes away;

Isaiah 10:18 In-Context

16 Therefore, the LORD God of heavenly forces will make the well-fed people waste away; and among his officials, a blaze will burn like scorching fire.
17 The light of Israel will become a fire, its holy one a flame, which will burn and devour its thorns and thistles in a single day.
18 Its abundant forest and farmland will be finished completely, as when a sick person wastes away;
19 its forest's remaining trees will be no more than a child can count.
20 On that day, what's left of Israel and the survivors of the house of Jacob will no longer depend on the one who beat them. Instead, they will faithfully depend on the LORD, the holy one of Israel.
