Text -- Isaiah 24:1-11 (NET)

Context
The Lord Will Judge the Earth
24:1 Look , the Lord is ready to devastate the earth and leave it in ruins ; he will mar its surface and scatter its inhabitants .
24:2 Everyone will suffer– the priest as well as the people , the master as well as the servant , the elegant lady as well as the female attendant , the seller as well as the buyer , the borrower as well as the lender , the creditor as well as the debtor .
24:3 The earth will be completely devastated and thoroughly ransacked . For the Lord has decreed this judgment .
24:4 The earth dries up and withers , the world shrivels up and withers ; the prominent people of the earth fade away .
24:5 The earth is defiled by its inhabitants , for they have violated laws , disregarded the regulation , and broken the permanent treaty .
24:6 So a treaty curse devours the earth ; its inhabitants pay for their guilt . This is why the inhabitants of the earth disappear , and are reduced to just a handful of people .
24:7 The new wine dries up , the vines shrivel up , all those who like to celebrate groan .
24:8 The happy sound of the tambourines stops , the revelry of those who celebrate comes to a halt , the happy sound of the harp ceases .
24:9 They no longer sing and drink wine ; the beer tastes bitter to those who drink it.
24:10 The ruined town is shattered ; all of the houses are shut up tight .
24:11 They howl in the streets because of what happened to the wine ; all joy turns to sorrow ; celebrations disappear from the earth .
