Isaiah 32:12-14

The Voice

¹² Beat your breasts over the loss of those lush vineyards,
    over the vines, heavy with fruit.
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.
