Isaiah 5:6

6I will make it a waste;
it shall not be pruned or hoed,
and abriers and thorns shall grow up;
bI will also command the clouds
that they rain no rain upon it.

Isaiah 32:12-14

12 cBeat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vine,
13 dfor the soil of my people
growing up in thorns and briers,
eyes, for all the joyous houses
in the exultant city.
14For the palace is forsaken,
the populous city deserted;
the hill and the watchtower
will become dens forever,
fa joy of wild donkeys,
a pasture of flocks;

Jeremiah 4:26

26I looked, and behold, the gfruitful land was a desert,
and all its cities were laid in ruins
before the Lord, before hhis fierce anger.

Hebrews 6:8

8But iif it bears thorns and thistles, it is worthless and near to being cursed, jand its end is to be burned.
