Isaiah 24:3-13

The earth will be utterly devastated and ruined, for the Lord YAHWEH has spoken this word! The ground itself mourns and withers; the soil languishes over the sins of its people, and the wealthy elite wither and languish. The people have polluted the earth beneath their feet by disobeying laws, violating truth, and breaking the ancient, everlasting covenant. Therefore a curse devours the earth; its people suffer under their guilt, causing earth’s inhabitants to dwindle, and their number is reduced to so few. The new wine dries up, the vine withers, and all the party-goers groan with disappointment. The joyful mirth of the tambourines is stilled, the jubilant noise of the revelers is ended, and the happy sound of the harp falls silent. No more wine and song! Hard liquor has become bitter to those who drink it. The city lies in chaos, and no one can enter. Riots break out because there is no wine. The sun has set on their gladness and joy; celebrations have disappeared from the earth. The city is left desolate with her gates battered down. As an olive tree is shaken clean of its olives and a grapevine picked clean of its grapes, so will be the fate of the nations.
