Isa 5:6, 55:10-11 | ESV | STEP | I will make it a waste ; it shall not be pruned or hoed , and briers and thorns shall grow up ; I will also command the clouds that they rain no rain upon it.

Isaiah 5:6

6 I 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 55:10-11

10 ^c“For as the rain and the snow come down from heaven
and do not return there but water the earth,
making it bring forth and sprout,
^dgiving seed to the sower and bread to the eater,
11 so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth;
it shall not return to me empty,
but ^eit shall accomplish that which I purpose,
and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it.
