“Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy.”
Isaiah 5:17 (BSB)
Context Reading
15So mankind will be brought low, and each man humbled; the arrogant will lower their eyes. 16But the LORD of Hosts will be exalted by His justice, and the holy God will show Himself holy in righteousness. 17Lambs will graze as in their own pastures, and strangers will feed in the ruins of the wealthy. 18Woe to those who draw iniquity with cords of deceit and pull sin along with cart ropes, 19to those who say, “Let Him hurry and hasten His work so that we may see it! Let the plan of the Holy One of Israel come so that we may know it!”
