Isaiah 15:6

15:6 For the waters of Nimrim are gone; ¹ 

the grass is dried up,

the vegetation has disappeared,

and there are no plants.

Isaiah 40:24

40:24 Indeed, they are barely planted;

yes, they are barely sown;

yes, they barely take root in the earth,

and then he blows on them, causing them to dry up,

and the wind carries them away like straw.

[15:6]  ¹ tn Heb “are waste places”; cf. NRSV “are a desolation.”
