International Standard Version
Isaiah 24:4-6
International Standard Version
4 “The earth dries up and withers;
the world languishes and fades away;
heaven fades away,
along with the earth.[a]
5 The earth lies defiled
beneath its inhabitants;
because they have transgressed the laws,[b]
violated the statutes,
and broken the everlasting covenant.
6 Therefore the curse keeps on consuming,[c]
and its inhabitants are declared guilty.
Furthermore, the inhabitants of earth are ablaze,
and few people are left.
