Isaiah 24:5-7

Common English Bible

⁵ The earth lies polluted under its inhabitants,
    for they have disobeyed instruction,
    swept aside law,
    and broken the ancient covenant.
⁶ Therefore, a curse devours the earth; its inhabitants suffer for their guilt.
Therefore, the earth’s inhabitants dwindle; very few are left.

⁷ The wine dries up;
    the vine withers;
    all the merry-hearted groan.
