Isaiah 24:1-5

1BeholdH2009, the LordH3068 1laysH1238 the earthH776 wasteH1238, devastatesH1110 it, distortsH5753 its surfaceH6440 and scattersH6327 its inhabitantsH3427.

2And the peopleH5971 will be like the priestH3548, the servantH5650 like his masterH113, the maidH8198 like her mistressH1404, the buyerH7069 like the sellerH4376, the lenderH3867 like the borrowerH3867, the 2creditorH5383 like the debtorH5377.

3The earthH776 will be completelyH1238 laidH1238 wasteH1238 and completelyH962 despoiledH962, for the LordH3068 has spokenH1696 thisH2088 wordH1697.

4The 3earthH776 mournsH56 and withersH5034, the worldH8398 fadesH535 and withersH5034, the 4exaltedH4791 of the peopleH5971 of the earthH776 fadeH535 awayH535.

5The earthH776 is also 5pollutedH2610 6by its inhabitantsH3427, for they transgressedH5674 lawsH8451, violatedH2498 statutesH2706, 7brokeH6565 the everlastingH5769 covenantH1285.
