Isaiah 24:4-9
New International Version
4 The earth dries up(A) and withers,(B)
the world languishes and withers,
the heavens(C) languish with the earth.(D)
5 The earth is defiled(E) by its people;
they have disobeyed(F) the laws,
violated the statutes
and broken the everlasting covenant.(G)
6 Therefore a curse(H) consumes the earth;
its people must bear their guilt.
Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up,(I)
and very few are left.
7 The new wine dries up(J) and the vine withers;(K)
all the merrymakers groan.(L)
8 The joyful timbrels(M) are stilled,
the noise(N) of the revelers(O) has stopped,
the joyful harp(P) is silent.(Q)
9 No longer do they drink wine(R) with a song;
the beer is bitter(S) to its drinkers.
