Isaiah 24:4

4 luxit et defluxit terra et infirmata est defluxit orbis infirmata est altitudo populi terrae

Isaiah 24:4 Meaning and Commentary

Isaiah 24:4

The earth mourneth, [and] fadeth away
It mourns, because of its inhabitants being destroyed; and it fades away, because stripped of its wealth and riches: so the kings of the earth, and merchants of it are represented as weeping and mourning at the destruction of Rome, because of its judgments, and the loss of its trade and riches, ( Revelation 18:9-17 ) : the world languisheth, [and] fadeth away:
the inhabitants of it are like a sick man, that is so faint and feeble that he cannot stand, but totters and falls; and like the leaves of trees and flowers of the fields, whose strength and beauty are gone, and fade and fall: the haughty people of the earth do languish:
the kings and merchants of the earth before mentioned, who grow sick and faint through fear of what is coming upon them.

Isaiah 24:4 In-Context

3 dissipatione dissipabitur terra et direptione praedabitur Dominus enim locutus est verbum hoc

4 luxit et defluxit terra et infirmata est defluxit orbis infirmata est altitudo populi terrae

5 et terra interfecta est ab habitatoribus suis quia transgressi sunt leges mutaverunt ius dissipaverunt foedus sempiternum

6 propter hoc maledictio vorabit terram et peccabunt habitatores eius ideoque insanient cultores eius et relinquentur homines pauci
