Isaiah 24:3-5

New Revised Standard Version Catholic Edition

³The earth shall be utterly laid waste and utterly despoiled;
for the Lord has spoken this word.

⁴The earth dries up and withers,
    the world languishes and withers;
    the heavens languish together with the earth.
⁵The earth lies polluted
    under its inhabitants;
for they have transgressed laws,
    violated the statutes,
    broken the everlasting covenant.
