Isaiah 17:4-6

New English Translation

⁴ “At that time^[a]
Jacob’s splendor will be greatly diminished,^[b]
and he will become skin and bones.^[c]
5 It will be as when one gathers the grain harvest,
and his hand gleans the ear of grain.
It will be like one gathering the ears of grain
in the Valley of Rephaim.
⁶ There will be some left behind,
as when an olive tree is beaten—
two or three ripe olives remain toward the very top,
four or five on its fruitful branches,”
says the Lord God of Israel.
