engLXXup: Isaiah 24

=> Chapters

 [1] Behold, the Lord is about to lay waste the world, and will make it desolate, and will lay bare the surface of it, and scatter them that dwell therein.  [2] And the people shall be as the priest, and the servant as the lord, and the maid as the mistress; the buyer shall be as the seller, the lender as the borrower, and the debtor as his creditor.

 [3] The earth shall be completely laid waste, and the earth shall be utterly spoiled: for the mouth of the Lord has spoken these things.  [4] The earth mourns, and the world is ruined, the lofty ones of the earth are mourning.  [5] And she has sinned by reason of her inhabitants; because they have transgressed the law, and changed the ordinances, even the everlasting covenant.  [6] Therefore a curse shall consume the earth, because the inhabitants thereof have sinned: therefore the dwellers in the earth shall be poor, and few men shall be left.  [7] The wine shall mourn, the vine shall mourn, all the merry-hearted shall sigh.  [8] The mirth of timbrels has ceased, the sound of the harp has ceased.  [9] They are ashamed, they have not drunk wine; strong drink has become bitter to them that drink it.  [10] All the city has become desolate: one shall shut his house so that none shall enter.  [11] There is a howling for the wine everywhere; all the mirth of the land has ceased, all the mirth of the land has departed.  [12] And cities shall be left desolate, and houses being left shall fall to ruin.

 [13] All this shall be in the land in the midst of the nations, as if one should strip an olive tree, so shall they strip them; but when the vintage is done,  [14] these shall cry aloud; and they that are left on the land shall rejoice together in the glory of the Lord: the water of the sea shall be troubled.  [15] Therefore shall the glory of the Lord be in the isles of the sea; the name of the Lord shall be glorious.

 [16] O Lord God of Israel, from the ends of the earth we have heard wonderful things, and there is hope to the godly: but they shall say, Woe to the despisers, that despise the law.  [17] Fear, and a pit, and a snare, are upon you that dwell on the earth.  [18] And it shall come to pass, that he that flees from the fear shall fall into the pit; and he that comes up out of the pit shall be caught by the snare: for windows have been opened in heaven, and the foundations of the earth shall be shaken,  [19] the earth shall be utterly confounded, and the earth shall be completely perplexed.  [20] It reels as a drunkard and one oppressed with wine, and the earth shall be shaken as a storehouse of fruits; for iniquity has prevailed upon it, and it shall fall, and shall not be able to rise.

 [21] And God shall bring his hand upon the host of heaven, and upon the kings of the earth.  [22] And they shall gather the multitude thereof into prisons, and they shall shut them into a stronghold: after many generations they shall be visited.  [23] And the brick shall decay, and the wall shall fall; for the Lord shall reign from out of Zion, and out of Jerusalem, and shall be glorified before his elders.
