“From the ends of the earth we hear singing: “Glory to the Righteous One.” But I said, “I am wasting away! I am wasting away! Woe is me.” The treacherous betray; the treacherous deal in treachery.”
Isaiah 24:16 (BSB)
Context Reading
14They raise their voices, they shout for joy; from the west they proclaim the majesty of the LORD. 15Therefore glorify the LORD in the east. Extol the name of the LORD, the God of Israel in the islands of the sea. 16From the ends of the earth we hear singing: “Glory to the Righteous One.” But I said, “I am wasting away! I am wasting away! Woe is me.” The treacherous betray; the treacherous deal in treachery. 17Terror and pit and snare await you, O dweller of the earth. 18Whoever flees the sound of panic will fall into the pit, and whoever climbs from the pit will be caught in the snare. For the windows of heaven are open, and the foundations of the earth are shaken.
