"Yet¹ the defencedª° cityª [shall be] desolate,ª [and] the habitationª forsaken,ª° and leftª° like a wilderness:ª there¹ shall the calfª feed,ª° and there¹ shall he lie down,ª° and consumeª° the branchesª thereof. ... When the boughsª thereof are withered,ª° they shall be broken off:ª° the womenª come,ª° [and] set them on fire:ª°¹ for¹ it [is] a peopleª of no¹ understanding:ª therefore¹¹ he¹ that madeª° them will not¹ have mercyª° on them, and he that formedª° them will shew them no favour.ª°¹" {Isa 27:10-11} + "Because¹ the palacesª shall be forsaken;ª° the multitudeª of the cityª shall be left;ª° the fortsª and towersª shall be¹ for¹ densª for² ever,ª¹ a joyª of wild asses,ª a pastureª of flocks;ª" {Isa 32:14} |
