Isaiah 17:4-8
English Standard Version
4 And in that day (A)the glory of Jacob will be brought low,
and (B)the fat of his flesh will grow lean.
5 And 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.

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition
4 On that day
the glory of Jacob will be brought low,
and the fat of his flesh will grow lean.(A)
5 And it shall be as when reapers gather standing grain
and their arms harvest the ears,
and as when one gleans the ears of grain
in the Valley of Rephaim.(B)
6 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,
says the Lord God of Israel.(C)
7 On that day people will look to their Maker, with their eyes on the Holy One of Israel;(D) 8 they will not have regard for the altars, the work of their hands, and they will not look to what their own fingers have made, either the sacred poles[a] or the altars of incense.(E)
