Isaiah 24:4-7
Holman Christian Standard Bible
4 The earth mourns and withers;
the world wastes away and withers;
the exalted people of the earth waste away.
5 The earth is polluted by its inhabitants,(A)
for they have transgressed teachings,
overstepped decrees,
and broken the everlasting covenant.(B)
6 Therefore a curse has consumed the earth,(C)
and its inhabitants have become guilty;
the earth’s inhabitants have been burned,
and only a few survive.
7 The new wine mourns;(D)
the vine withers.
All the carousers now groan.
Jeremiah 4:28
Holman Christian Standard Bible
28 Because of this, the earth will mourn;(A)
the skies above will grow dark.(B)
I have spoken; I have planned,
and I will not relent or turn back from it.(C)
Jeremiah 23:10
Holman Christian Standard Bible
10 For the land is full of adulterers;(A)
the land mourns because of the curse,
and the grazing lands in the wilderness have dried up.
Their way of life[a] has become evil,
and their power is not rightly used
