- desolate:
- "Thus¹ saithª° the Lordª GOD;ª In the dayª that I shall have cleansedª° you from all¹¹ your iniquitiesª I will also cause [you] to dwellª°¹ in the cities,ª and the wastesª shall be builded.ª° ... And they shall say,ª° Thisª landª that was desolateª° is become¹ like the gardenª of Eden;ª and the wasteª and desolateª° and ruinedª° citiesª [are become] fenced,ª° [and] are inhabited.ª°" {Ezk 36:33-35} + "So will I stretch outª°¹ my handª upon¹ them, and makeª°¹ the landª desolate,ª yea, more desolateª than the wildernessª¹ toward Diblath,ª in all¹ their habitations:ª and they shall knowª° that¹ I¹ [am] the LORD.ª" {Ezk 6:14} + "Therefore he broughtª° upon¹ them¹ the kingª of the Chaldees,ª who slewª° their young menª with the swordª in the houseª of their sanctuary,ª and had no compassionª°¹ upon¹ young manª or maiden,ª old man,ª or him that stooped for age:ª he gaveª° [them] all¹ into his hand.ª ... To fulfilª° the wordª of the LORDª by the mouthª of Jeremiah,ª until¹ the landª had enjoyedª°¹ her sabbaths:ª [for] as long asª¹ she lay desolateª° she kept sabbath,ª° to fulfilª° threescore and tenª years.ª" {2Ch 36:17-21} + "Then saidª° I, Lord,ª how long?¹¹ And he answered,ª° Until¹¹ the citiesª be wastedª° without¹¹ inhabitant,ª° and the housesª without¹¹ man,ª and the landª be utterlyª desolate,ª°" {Isa 6:11} + "Behold,¹ the LORDª maketh the earth² empty,ª°¹ and maketh it waste,ª° and turneth²° it upside down,ª¹ and scattereth abroadª° the inhabitantsª° thereof. ... In the cityª is leftª° desolation,ª and the gateª is smittenª° with destruction.ª" {Isa 24:1-12}
