Isaiah 32:9-14
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
The Women of Jerusalem
9 You women so complacent, rise up and hear my voice,
daughters so confident, give heed to my words.(A)
10 In a little more than a year
your confidence will be shaken;
For the vintage will fail,
no fruit harvest will come in.(B)
11 Tremble, you who are so complacent!
Shudder, you who are so confident!
Strip yourselves bare,
with only a loincloth for cover.(C)
12 Beat your breasts
for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vine;(D)
13 For the soil of my people,
overgrown with thorns and briers;
For all the joyful houses,
the exultant city.(E)
14 The castle[a] will be forsaken,
the noisy city deserted;
Citadel and tower will become wasteland forever,
the joy of wild donkeys, the pasture of flocks;(F)
Isaiah 32:9-14
New International Version
The Women of Jerusalem
9 You women(A) who are so complacent,
rise up and listen(B) to me;
you daughters who feel secure,(C)
hear what I have to say!
10 In little more than a year(D)
you who feel secure will tremble;
the grape harvest will fail,(E)
and the harvest of fruit will not come.
11 Tremble,(F) you complacent women;
shudder, you daughters who feel secure!(G)
Strip off your fine clothes(H)
and wrap yourselves in rags.(I)
12 Beat your breasts(J) for the pleasant fields,
for the fruitful vines(K)
13 and for the land of my people,
a land overgrown with thorns and briers(L)—
yes, mourn(M) for all houses of merriment
and for this city of revelry.(N)
14 The fortress(O) will be abandoned,
the noisy city deserted;(P)
citadel and watchtower(Q) will become a wasteland forever,
the delight of donkeys,(R) a pasture for flocks,(S)
