Isaiah 32:9-14

English Standard Version

^9 (A)Rise up, you women ^(B)who are at ease, hear my voice;
    you complacent daughters, give ear to my speech.
¹⁰ In little more than a year
    you will shudder, you complacent women;
for the grape harvest fails,
    the fruit harvest will not come.
¹¹ Tremble, you women ^(C)who are at ease,
    shudder, you complacent ones;
^(D)strip, and make yourselves bare,
    ^(E)and tie sackcloth around your waist.
^12 (F)Beat your breasts for the pleasant fields,
    for the fruitful vine,
^13 (G)for the soil of my people
    growing up in thorns and briers,
^(H)yes, for all the joyous houses
    in the exultant city.
¹⁴ For the palace is forsaken,
    the populous city deserted;
the hill and the watchtower
    will become dens forever,
^(I)a joy of wild donkeys,
    a pasture of flocks;
