Isaiah 24

CHAPTER 24 The Desolation of the Inhabitable World

1 Behold, the lord lays waste the [²inhabitable world ¹whole], and will make it desolate, and shall uncover its surface, and disperse the ones dwelling on it. 2 And [³will be ¹the ²people] as priests; and the servant as the master; and the female attendant [²as ³the ⁴lady ¹will be]; the one buying as the one selling; the one borrowing as the one lending; and the one owing as the one who is owed. 3 By corruption [³shall be corrupted ¹the ²earth]; and by plunder [³shall be plundered ¹the ²earth]; for the mouth of the lord spoke these things. 4 [³mourns ¹The ²earth], and [³is corrupted ¹the ²world]; [⁵mourn ¹the ²lofty ones ³of the ⁴earth]. 5 And the earth acted lawlessly on account of the ones inhabiting her; because they transgressed the law of the lord, and effaced and bartered away the orders -- [²covenant ¹the eternal]. 6 Therefore this curse shall devour the earth; for [⁴sinned ¹the ones ²dwelling ³on it]; on account of this [⁶will be poor ¹the ones ²dwelling ³on ⁴the ⁵earth], and [³will be left behind ²men ¹a few]. 7 [²shall mourn ¹The wine], [²shall mourn ¹the grapevine], [⁵shall moan ¹all ²the ones ³being glad ⁴in soul]. 8 [³has ceased ¹The gladness ²of tambourines]; [⁵have ceased ¹self-sufficiency ²and ⁴riches ³impious]; [³has ceased ¹the sound ²of the harp]. 9 They are ashamed, they did not drink wine; [³bitter ²became ¹liquor] to the ones drinking. 10 [³was desolate ¹Every ²city]. One shall lock the house to not enter. 11 Shriek for the wine everywhere! [⁵has ceased ¹All ²gladness ³of the ⁴earth]; [⁵departed ¹all ²gladness ³of the ⁴earth]; 12 and [³shall be left behind ²cities ¹desolate], and houses being abandoned shall be consumed. 13 All these things will be on the earth in the midst of the nations. In which manner as if one should glean an olive tree, thus shall they glean them, even as if [³should cease ¹the ²gathering a crop], 14 And these in a voice shall yell out; but the ones being left behind upon the earth shall be glad together in the glory of the lord; [⁵shall be disturbed ¹the ²water ³of the ⁴sea]. 15 On account of this the glory of the lord [²among ³the ⁴islands ¹will be] of the sea; the name of the lord will be honored. 16 O lord God of Israel, from the wings of the earth [²miracles ¹we heard] -- hope to the pious; but they shall say, Woe to the ones annulling -- the ones annulling the law. 17 Fear, and a pit, and a snare is upon you, O ones dwelling upon the earth. 18 And it will be the one fleeing the fear shall fall into the pit; and the one going up from out of the pit shall be captured by the snare; for windows from out of the heaven were opened, and [⁵shall be shaken ¹the ²foundations ³of the ⁴earth]. 19 By disturbance [³shall be disturbed ¹the ²earth]; and with perplexity [³shall be perplexed ¹the ²earth]. 20 It leans and [³shall be shaken ⁴as ⁵a storehouse of fruits ¹the ²earth]; as the one being intoxicated and dizzy; and it shall fall, and in no way be able to rise up. [³shall grow strong ¹For ⁴upon ⁵it ²lawlessness]. 21 And it will be in that day [²shall bring ¹God ⁵against ⁶the ⁷cosmos ⁸of the ⁹heaven ³the ⁴hand], and against the kings of the earth. 22 And they shall gather its congregation, and shall lock them into a fortress and in a jail; through many generations [³visited ²will be ¹they]. 23 And [³shall melt away ¹the ²brick], and [³shall fall ¹the ²wall], and [³shall feel remorse ¹the ²moon], and [³shall be ashamed ¹the ²sun], for the lord shall reign in Zion, and from out of Jerusalem, and [²before ³the ⁴elders ¹he shall be glorified].
