thereof. |
|
|
|
|
| Isaiah 24:2 |
|
And it shall be, as with the people, so with
the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with
her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the creditor, so
with the debtor; as with the taker of interest, so with the giver of interest
to him. |

laid waste; for Jehovah hath spoken this word. |

thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, violated the statutes, broken
the everlasting covenant. |

The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth,
all the merry-hearted do sigh. |

that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth. |

The waste city is broken down; every house is
shut up, that no man may come in. |
|

There is a crying in the streets because of
the wine; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone. |

|
In the city is left desolation, and the gate
is smitten with destruction. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 24:13 |
|
For thus shall it be in the midst of the earth
among the peoples, as the shaking of an olive-tree, as the gleanings when the
vintage is done. |

These shall lift up their voice, they shall
shout; for the majesty of Jehovah they cry aloud from the sea. |

Wherefore glorify ye Jehovah in the east, even
the name of Jehovah, the God of Israel, in the isles of the sea. |

From the uttermost part of the earth have we
heard songs: Glory to the righteous. But I said, I pine away, I pine away, woe
is me! the treacherous have dealt treacherously; yea, the treacherous have dealt
very treacherously. |
|
|
|

Fear, and the pit, and the snare, are upon thee,
O inhabitant of the earth. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 24:18 |
|
And it shall come to pass, that he who fleeth
from the noise of the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that cometh up out
of the midst of the pit shall be taken in the snare: for the windows on high are
opened, and the foundations of the earth tremble. |
|
|
|
| Isaiah 24:19 |
|
The earth is utterly broken, the earth is rent
asunder, the earth is shaken violently. |
| |
|

The earth shall stagger like a drunken man,
and shall sway to and fro like a hammock; and the transgression thereof shall
be heavy upon it, and it shall fall, and not rise again. |
| |
|
|
| Isaiah 24:21 |
|
And it shall come to pass in that day, that
Jehovah will punish the host of the high ones on high, and the kings of the earth
upon the earth. |
|
|
|

And they shall be gathered together, as prisoners
are gathered in the pit, and shall be shut up in the prison; and after many days
shall they be visited. |
|

Then the moon shall be confounded, and the sun
ashamed; for Jehovah of hosts will reign in mount Zion, and in Jerusalem; and
before his elders shall be glory. |
