 Isaiah 24

1 Look! The Lord will devastate the land and devastate it; it will ruin its surface and scatter its inhabitants.

2 It will be the same for the priest and the people, for the master and the servant, for the mistress and the maidservant, for the seller and the buyer, for the borrower and the lender, for the debtor and the creditor.

3 The land will be completely devastated and completely plundered. The Lord spoke this word.

4 The earth dries up and withers, the world withers and withers, the nobles of the earth wither.

5 The land is defiled by its inhabitants, because they disobeyed the laws, violated the decrees and broke the everlasting covenant.

6 Therefore the curse consumes the land, and its people are guilty. This is why the inhabitants of the earth are consumed by fire, to the point that very few are left.

7 The new wine goes away, and the vine withers; everyone who was having fun groans.

8 The festive sound of the tambourines has been silenced, the noise of those who rejoice has stopped, the harp full of joy is silent.

9 They no longer drink wine while singing songs; the fermented drink is bitter to those who drink it.

10 The vain city is in ruins; the entrance to each house is closed.

11 In the streets they cry for wine; all joy has come to an end, all celebration has been wiped from the earth.

12 The city was left in ruins, its gate torn to pieces.

13 So it will be on earth, among the nations, as when a rod is used on an olive tree or when the remains of grapes are sought after harvest.

14 They lift up their voices, they sing for joy; From the West they acclaim the majesty of the Lord.

15 Therefore give glory to the Lord in the East, and in the islands of the sea exalt the name of the Lord, the God of Israel.

16 From the ends of the earth we heard people singing, "Glory be to the Righteous!"

17 Dread, pit and snare await you, O inhabitants of the earth!

18 Whoever flees from the scream of terror will fall into the pit; whoever comes out of the pit will be caught in the snare. Open are the floodgates of the heavens; the foundations of the earth tremble.

19 The earth has been torn apart, it is destroyed, it is completely shaken!

20 The earth staggers like a drunkard, shakes like a hut in the wind; so heavy upon her is the guilt of her rebellion that she falls never to rise again!

21 In that day the Lord will punish the powers in the heavens above and the kings on the earth below.

22 They will be herded like prisoners in a dungeon, locked in a prison and punished after many days.

23 The moon will be humbled, and the sun will be ashamed; for the Lord of hosts will reign on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem, glorious in the presence of his leaders!
