Isaiah 24:1-6

Isaiah 24:1-6 TPT

Behold! The Lord YAHWEH is about to devastate the earth and make it desolate. He will mar its surface and scatter the inhabitants. Everyone will experience the same fate— priests and people, masters and slaves, their maids and mistresses, buyers and sellers, lenders and borrowers, rich and poor. 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.
