Isaiah 24:5-7

New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised Catholic Edition

⁵ The earth lies polluted
    under its inhabitants;
for they have transgressed laws,
    violated the statutes,
    broken the everlasting covenant.
⁶ Therefore a curse devours the earth,
    and its inhabitants suffer for their guilt;
therefore the inhabitants of the earth dwindled,
    and few people are left.
⁷ The wine dries up,
    the vine languishes,
    all the merry-hearted sigh.
