Isaiah 32:13-15
The Voice
13 Mourn over my people’s land, verdant and lush,
now the habitat of thorns and briars—
Yes, for all the happy homes and vibrant cities.
14 Palaces and bustling cities will be abandoned;
hilltop posts and watchtowers will serve as caves for animals;
wild donkeys and flocks will enjoy the wide open spaces.
15 So it will be until God pours out the Spirit from up above,
and the land comes alive again—desert to fertile field, fertile field to forest.
Isaiah 32:13-15
New International Version
13 and for the land of my people,
a land overgrown with thorns and briers(A)—
yes, mourn(B) for all houses of merriment
and for this city of revelry.(C)
14 The fortress(D) will be abandoned,
the noisy city deserted;(E)
citadel and watchtower(F) will become a wasteland forever,
the delight of donkeys,(G) a pasture for flocks,(H)
15 till the Spirit(I) is poured on us from on high,
and the desert becomes a fertile field,(J)
and the fertile field seems like a forest.(K)
