Isaiah 24:3-13

MKJV(i) 3 The land shall be completely emptied, and utterly stripped; for Jehovah has spoken this Word. 4 The earth mourns and languishes; the world droops and languishes; the proud people of the earth droop. 5 And the land is defiled under its people; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, and have broken the everlasting covenant. 6 Therefore the curse has devoured the earth, and they who dwell in it are deserted; therefore the people of the earth are burned, and few men left. 7 The new wine mourns, the vine droops, all the merry-hearted sigh. 8 The gladness of tambourines ceases, the noise of those who rejoice ends; the joy of the harp ceases. 9 They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to those who drink it. 10 The city of shame is broken down; every house is shut up so that no one may come in. 11 A crying for wine is in the streets; all joy is darkened, the gladness in the land has gone. 12 In the city is left desolation, and the gate is stricken with ruin. 13 For so it is in the midst of the land among the people, it shall be like the shaking of an olive tree and as gleanings when the grape harvest is completed.
