Isaiah 24:1-9
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 24
1
Behold, the
Lord
lays the earth waste, devastates it, twists its surface, and scatters its inhabitants.
2
And the people will be like the priest, the servant like his master, the female servant like her mistress, the buyer like the seller, the lender like the borrower, the creditor like the debtor.
3
The earth will be completely laid waste and completely plundered, for the
Lord
has spoken this word.
4
The earth dries up
and
crumbles away, the mainland dries out
and
crumbles away, the exalted of the people of the earth dwindle.
5
The earth is also defiled by its inhabitants, for they violated laws, altered statutes,
and
broke the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore, a curse devours the earth, and those who live on it suffer for their guilt. Therefore, the inhabitants of the earth decrease in number, and few people are left.
7
The new wine mourns,
The vine decays,
All the joyful-hearted sigh.
8
The joy of tambourines ceases,
The noise of revelers stops,
The joy of the harp ceases.
9
They do not drink wine with song;
Intoxicating drink is bitter to those who drink it.
King James Version
Chapter 24
1
Behold, the
Lord
maketh the earth empty, and maketh it waste, and turneth it upside down, and scattereth abroad the inhabitants thereof.
2
And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest; as with the servant, so with his master; as with the maid, so with her mistress; as with the buyer, so with the seller; as with the lender, so with the borrower; as with the taker of usury, so with the giver of usury to him.
3
The land shall be utterly emptied, and utterly spoiled: for the
Lord
hath spoken this word.
4
The earth mourneth and fadeth away, the world languisheth and fadeth away, the haughty people of the earth do languish.
5
The earth also is defiled under the inhabitants thereof; because they have transgressed the laws, changed the ordinance, broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore hath the curse devoured the earth, and they that dwell therein are desolate: therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, and few men left.
7
The new wine mourneth, the vine languisheth, all the merryhearted do sigh.
8
The mirth of tabrets ceaseth, the noise of them that rejoice endeth, the joy of the harp ceaseth.
9
They shall not drink wine with a song; strong drink shall be bitter to them that drink it.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 24
1
Look, the
Lord
is stripping the earth bare
and making it desolate.
He will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants:
2
people and priest alike,
servant and master,
female servant and mistress,
buyer and seller,
lender and borrower,
creditor and debtor.
3
The earth will be stripped completely bare
and will be totally plundered,
for the
Lord
has spoken this message.
4
The earth mourns and withers;
the world wastes away and withers;
the exalted people of the earth waste away.
5
The earth is polluted by its inhabitants,
for they have transgressed teachings,
overstepped decrees,
and broken the permanent covenant.
6
Therefore a curse has consumed the earth,
and its inhabitants have become guilty;
the earth’s inhabitants have been burned,
and only a few survive.
7
The new wine mourns;
the vine withers.
All the carousers now groan.
8
The joyful tambourines have ceased.
The noise of the jubilant has stopped.
The joyful lyre has ceased.
9
They no longer sing and drink wine;
beer is bitter to those who drink it.
New Living Translation
Chapter 24
1
Look! The
Lord
is about to destroy the earth
and make it a vast wasteland.
He devastates the surface of the earth
and scatters the people.
2
Priests and laypeople,
servants and masters,
maids and mistresses,
buyers and sellers,
lenders and borrowers,
bankers and debtors — none will be spared.
3
The earth will be completely emptied and looted.
The
Lord
has spoken!
4
The earth mourns and dries up,
and the land wastes away and withers.
Even the greatest people on earth waste away.
5
The earth suffers for the sins of its people,
for they have twisted God’s instructions,
violated his laws,
and broken his everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore, a curse consumes the earth.
Its people must pay the price for their sin.
They are destroyed by fire,
and only a few are left alive.
7
The grapevines waste away,
and there is no new wine.
All the merrymakers sigh and mourn.
8
The cheerful sound of tambourines is stilled;
the happy cries of celebration are heard no more.
The melodious chords of the harp are silent.
9
Gone are the joys of wine and song;
alcoholic drink turns bitter in the mouth.
English Standard Version
Chapter 24
1
Behold, the
Lord
will empty the earth and make it desolate,
and he will twist its surface and scatter its inhabitants.
2
And it shall be, as with the people, so with the priest;
as with the slave, so with his master;
as with the maid, so with her mistress;
as with the buyer, so with the seller;
as with the lender, so with the borrower;
as with the creditor, so with the debtor.
3
The earth shall be utterly empty and utterly plundered;
for the
Lord
has spoken this word.
4
The earth mourns and withers;
the world languishes and withers;
the highest people of the earth languish.
5
The earth lies defiled
under its inhabitants;
for they have transgressed the laws,
violated the statutes,
broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore a curse devours the earth,
and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt;
therefore the inhabitants of the earth are scorched,
and few men are left.
7
The wine mourns,
the vine languishes,
all the merry-hearted sigh.
8
The mirth of the tambourines is stilled,
the noise of the jubilant has ceased,
the mirth of the lyre is stilled.
9
No more do they drink wine with singing;
strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.
New International Version
Chapter 24
1
See, the
Lord
is going to lay waste the earth
and devastate it;
he will ruin its face
and scatter its inhabitants—
2
it will be the same
for priest as for people,
for the master as for his servant,
for the mistress as for her servant,
for seller as for buyer,
for borrower as for lender,
for debtor as for creditor.
3
The earth will be completely laid waste
and totally plundered.
The
Lord
has spoken this word.
4
The earth dries up and withers,
the world languishes and withers,
the heavens languish with the earth.
5
The earth is defiled by its people;
they have disobeyed the laws,
violated the statutes
and broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore a curse consumes the earth;
its people must bear their guilt.
Therefore earth’s inhabitants are burned up,
and very few are left.
7
The new wine dries up and the vine withers;
all the merrymakers groan.
8
The joyful timbrels are stilled,
the noise of the revelers has stopped,
the joyful harp is silent.
9
No longer do they drink wine with a song;
the beer is bitter to its drinkers.
New King James Version
Chapter 24
1
Behold, the
Lord
makes the earth empty and makes it waste,
Distorts its surface
And scatters abroad its inhabitants.
2
And it shall be:
As with the people, so with the priest;
As with the servant, so with his master;
As with the maid, so with her mistress;
As with the buyer, so with the seller;
As with the lender, so with the borrower;
As with the creditor, so with the debtor.
3
The land shall be entirely emptied and utterly plundered,
For the
Lord
has spoken this word.
4
The earth mourns
and
fades away,
The world languishes
and
fades away;
The haughty people of the earth languish.
5
The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants,
Because they have transgressed the laws,
Changed the ordinance,
Broken the everlasting covenant.
6
Therefore the curse has devoured the earth,
And those who dwell in it are desolate.
Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned,
And few men
are
left.
7
The new wine fails, the vine languishes,
All the merry-hearted sigh.
8
The mirth of the tambourine ceases,
The noise of the jubilant ends,
The joy of the harp ceases.
9
They shall not drink wine with a song;
Strong drink is bitter to those who drink it.
