Isaiah 17:4-8

English Standard Version

⁴And in that day ^(A)the glory of Jacob will be brought low,
    and ^(B)the fat of his flesh will grow lean.
⁵And it shall be ^(C)as when the reaper gathers standing grain
    and his arm harvests the ears,
and as when one gleans the ears of grain
    in ^(D)the Valley of Rephaim.
⁶^(E)Gleanings will be left in it,
    as when an olive tree is beaten—
two or three berries
    in the top of the highest bough,
four or five
    on the branches of a fruit tree,
declares the Lord God of Israel.

⁷^(F)In that day man will look to his Maker, and his eyes will look on the Holy One of Israel. ⁸^(G)He will not look to the altars, the work of his hands, and he will not look on what his own fingers have made, either the ^(H)Asherim or the altars of incense.
