Isaiah 17:9-11

American Standard Version

⁹ In that day shall their strong cities be as the forsaken places in the wood and on the mountain top, which were forsaken from before the children of Israel; and it shall be a desolation. ¹⁰ For thou hast forgotten the God of thy salvation, and hast not been mindful of the rock of thy ^[a]strength; therefore thou plantest pleasant plants, and settest it with ^[b]strange slips. ¹¹ In the day of thy planting thou hedgest it in, and in the morning thou makest thy seed to blossom; but the harvest ^[c]fleeth away in the day of grief and of desperate sorrow.
