Leviticus 26:33

26:33 I will scatter you among the nations and unsheathe the sword ¹  after you, so your land will become desolate and your cities will become a waste.

Isaiah 7:21-25

7:21 At that time ²  a man will keep alive a young cow from the herd and a couple of goats. 7:22 From the abundance of milk they produce, ³  he will have sour milk for his meals. Indeed, everyone left in the heart of the land will eat sour milk and honey. 7:23 At that time ⁴  every place where there had been a thousand vines worth a thousand shekels will be overrun ⁵  with thorns and briers. 7:24 With bow and arrow ⁶  men will hunt ⁷  there, for the whole land will be covered ⁸  with thorns and briers. 7:25 They will stay away from all the hills that were cultivated, for fear of the thorns and briers. ⁹  Cattle will graze there and sheep will trample on them. ¹⁰ 

Isaiah 22:18

22:18 He will wind you up tightly into a ball

and throw you into a wide, open land. ¹¹ 

There you will die,

and there with you will be your impressive chariots, ¹² 

which bring disgrace to the house of your master. ¹³ 

¹ tn Heb “and I will empty sword” (see HALOT 1228 s.v. ריק 3).

² tn Heb “in that day.” The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

³ tn The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated, see note on 2:2.

⁴ tn Heb “in that day.” The verb that introduces this verse serves as a discourse particle and is untranslated; see note on “in the future” in 2:2.

⁵ tn Heb “will become” (so NASB); NAB “shall be turned to.”

⁶ tn Heb “with arrows and a bow.” The more common English idiom is “bow[s] and arrow[s].”

⁷ tn Heb “go” (so NAB, NIV, NRSV); TEV “go hunting.”

⁸ tn Heb “will be” (so NASB, NRSV).

⁹ tn Heb “and all the hills which were hoed with a hoe, you will not go there [for] fear of the thorns and briers.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “and it will become a pasture for cattle and a trampling place for sheep.”

¹¹ tn Heb “and he will tightly [or “surely”] wind you [with] winding like a ball, to a land broad of hands [i.e., “sides”].”

¹² tn Heb “and there the chariots of your splendor.”

¹³ sn Apparently the reference to chariots alludes to Shebna’s excessive pride, which in turn brings disgrace to the royal family.
