Isaiah 5:13-17

International Children’s Bible

¹³ So my people will be captured and taken away
    because they don’t really know me.
All the great men will die of hunger.
    The common people will die of thirst.
¹⁴ So the place where the dead are wants more and more people.
    It opens its mouth wide.
Jerusalem’s important men will go down into it.
    And the common people will go down into it.
¹⁵ So the common people and the great people will be humbled.
    Those who are proud will be humbled.
¹⁶ The Lord of heaven’s armies will receive glory by judging fairly.
    The holy God will show himself holy by doing what is right.
¹⁷ Then the sheep will go anywhere they want.
    Lambs will feed on the land that rich people once owned.
