Old TestamentIsaiahThe Women of Jerusalem · 32:9–2032:9 Rise up, ye women that are at ease; hear my voice, ye careless daughters; give ear unto my speech.32:10 Many days and years shall ye be troubled, ye careless women: for the vintage shall fail, the gathering shall not come.32:11 Tremble, ye women that are at ease; be troubled, ye careless ones: strip you, and make you bare, and gird sackcloth upon your loins.32:12 They shall lament for the teats, for the pleasant fields, for the fruitful vine.32:13 Upon the land of my people shall come up thorns and briers; yea, upon all the houses of joy in the joyous city:32:14 Because the palaces shall be forsaken; the multitude of the city shall be left; the forts and towers shall be for dens for ever, a joy of wild asses, a pasture of flocks;32:15 Until the spirit be poured upon us from on high, and the wilderness be a fruitful field, and the fruitful field be counted for a forest.32:16 Then judgment shall dwell in the wilderness, and righteousness remain in the fruitful field.32:17 And the work of righteousness shall be peace; and the effect of righteousness quietness and assurance for ever.32:18 And my people shall dwell in a peaceable habitation, and in sure dwellings, and in quiet resting places;32:19 When it shall hail, coming down on the forest; and the city shall be low in a low place.32:20 Blessed are ye that sow beside all waters, that send forth thither the feet of the ox and the ass.
