Isaiah 17:4-6

GOD’S WORD Translation

⁴ “When that day comes, the honor of Jacob’s people will fade away,
and they will become skin and bones.
⁵ That time will be like harvesting bundles of grain by the armful.
It will be like gathering grain in the Rephaim Valley.
⁶ Only a few people will survive.
They will be like an olive tree that has been beaten.
Only two or three olives are left
at the top of the highest branch,
four or five olives on the rest of the branches,”
declares the Lord God of Israel.
