Isaiah 32:12-14

Evangelical Heritage Version

¹² Beat your breasts in mourning
    for the pleasant fields,
    for the fruitful vines,
¹³ because my people’s land will yield only thorns and briers.
Weep for all the houses where you partied,
    in the city where you celebrated.
¹⁴ Then the fortress will be abandoned.
The crowded city will be deserted.
The citadel and the watchtower will become
    rugged ruins^[a] for a long time,
    enjoyed by wild donkeys,
    and a pasture for flocks,
