Isaiah 24:2-15
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 24
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.
10
The city of chaos is broken down;
Every house is shut up so that no one may enter.
11
There is an outcry in the streets concerning the wine;
All joy turns to gloom.
The joy of the earth is banished.
12
Desolation is left in the city
And the gate is battered to ruins.
13
For so it will be in the midst of the earth among the peoples,
As the shaking of an olive tree,
As the gleanings when the grape harvest is over.
14
They raise their voices, they shout for joy;
They cry out from the west concerning the majesty of the
Lord
.
15
Therefore glorify the
Lord
in the east,
The name of the
Lord
, the God of Israel,
In the coastlands of the sea.
King James Version
Chapter 24
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.
10
The city of confusion is broken down: every house is shut up, that no man may come in.
11
There is a crying for wine in the streets; all joy is darkened, the mirth of the land is gone.
12
In the city is left desolation, and the gate is smitten with destruction.
13
When thus it shall be in the midst of the land among the people, there shall be as the shaking of an olive tree, and as the gleaning grapes when the vintage is done.
14
They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing for the majesty of the
Lord
, they shall cry aloud from the sea.
15
Wherefore glorify ye the
Lord
in the fires, even the name of the
Lord
God of Israel in the isles of the sea.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 24
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.
10
The city of chaos is shattered;
every house is closed to entry.
11
In the streets they cry for wine.
All joy grows dark;
earth’s rejoicing goes into exile.
12
Only desolation remains in the city;
its gate has collapsed in ruins.
13
For this is how it will be on earth
among the nations:
like a harvested olive tree,
like a gleaning after a grape harvest.
14
They raise their voices, they sing out;
they proclaim in the west
the majesty of the
Lord
.
15
Therefore, in the east honor the
Lord
!
In the coasts and islands of the west
honor the name of the
Lord
,
the God of Israel.
New Living Translation
Chapter 24
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.
10
The city writhes in chaos;
every home is locked to keep out intruders.
11
Mobs gather in the streets, crying out for wine.
Joy has turned to gloom.
Gladness has been banished from the land.
12
The city is left in ruins,
its gates battered down.
13
Throughout the earth the story is the same —
only a remnant is left,
like the stray olives left on the tree
or the few grapes left on the vine after harvest.
14
But all who are left shout and sing for joy.
Those in the west praise the
Lord
’s majesty.
15
In eastern lands, give glory to the
Lord
.
In the lands beyond the sea, praise the name of the
Lord
, the God of Israel.
English Standard Version
Chapter 24
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.
10
The wasted city is broken down;
every house is shut up so that none can enter.
11
There is an outcry in the streets for lack of wine;
all joy has grown dark;
the gladness of the earth is banished.
12
Desolation is left in the city;
the gates are battered into ruins.
13
For thus it shall be in the midst of the earth
among the nations,
as when an olive tree is beaten,
as at the gleaning when the grape harvest is done.
14
They lift up their voices, they sing for joy;
over the majesty of the
Lord
they shout from the west.
15
Therefore in the east give glory to the
Lord
;
in the coastlands of the sea, give glory to the name of the
Lord
, the God of Israel.
New International Version
Chapter 24
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.
10
The ruined city lies desolate;
the entrance to every house is barred.
11
In the streets they cry out for wine;
all joy turns to gloom,
all joyful sounds are banished from the earth.
12
The city is left in ruins,
its gate is battered to pieces.
13
So will it be on the earth
and among the nations,
as when an olive tree is beaten,
or as when gleanings are left after the grape harvest.
14
They raise their voices, they shout for joy;
from the west they acclaim the
Lord
’s majesty.
15
Therefore in the east give glory to the
Lord
;
exalt the name of the
Lord
, the God of Israel,
in the islands of the sea.
New King James Version
Chapter 24
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.
10
The city of confusion is broken down;
Every house is shut up, so that none may go in.
11
There is
a cry for wine in the streets,
All joy is darkened,
The mirth of the land is gone.
12
In the city desolation is left,
And the gate is stricken with destruction.
13
When it shall be thus in the midst of the land among the people,
It shall be
like the shaking of an olive tree,
Like the gleaning of grapes when the vintage is done.
14
They shall lift up their voice, they shall sing;
For the majesty of the
Lord
They shall cry aloud from the sea.
15
Therefore glorify the
Lord
in the dawning light,
The name of the
Lord
God of Israel in the coastlands of the sea.
