Desolation » Why desolation comes
Many shepherds destroyed my vineyard, they trod down my portion, they gave the portion of my desire for a desert of desolation. Setting her for a desolation, she mourned to me; all the land was set a desolation, for no man put upon his heart They spoiling came upon all the hills of the desert: for the sword of Jehovah consumed from the extremity of the land even to extremity of the land: no peace to all flesh. read more.

Surely I will do this to you, and I appointed over you terror, consumption, and burning fever, destroying the eyes and consuming the soul: and ye sowed in vain your seed, and your enemies shall eat it. And I gave my face against you, and ye were slain before your enemies: and they hating you ruled over you, and ye fled and none pursued you. And if yet these ye will not hear to me, I added to chastise you seven times for your sins. And I broke the pride of your strength: and I gave your heaven as iron, and your earth as brass: And your strength shall be exhausted to no purpose: and your land shall not give its produce, and the tree of the land shall not give its fruit And if ye shall go hostile with me, and shall not be willing to hear to me, and I added upon you seven blows for your sins. And I sent upon you the beast of the field, and it bereaved you of children, and cut off your cattle, and, diminished you, and your ways were laid waste. And if by these ye will not be admonished by me, and ye went hostile with me; And I went also hostile with you, and I struck you, also I, seven for your sins.

And ye ate the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat. And I laid waste your high places, and I cut off your images, and I gave your carcasses upon the carcasses of your blocks, and my soul abhorred you. And I gave your cities a desert, and I laid waste your holy places, and I will not smell upon the odor of your sweetness. And I laid the land waste, and your enemies were astonished at it, they dwelling upon it

And ye heard not to me, says Jehovah; so as to irritate me in the works of your hands for evil to you.

For Gaza shall be forsaken, and Ashkelon for a desolation: they shall thrust out Ashdod at noon, and Ekron shall be rooted up.

And the region was for the remnant of the house of Judah; upon them they shall feed: in the houses of Ashkelon they shall lie down in the evening: for Jehovah their God shall review them, and turn back their captivity.

This to them for their pride, for they reproached and they will magnify against the people of Jehovah of armies. God being terrible to them, for he made lean all the gods of the earth; and they shall worship to him each from his place, all the isles of the nations. Also ye Cushites, they being wounded by my sword. And he will stretch out his hand against the north, and he will destroy Assur; and he will set Nineveh for a desolation, a dryness as the desert And the flocks lay down in the midst of her, all the beasts of the nations: also the pelican, also the hedgehog shall lodge in her capitals; a voice shall sing in the window; desolation in the threshold: for the cedar was naked. This the exulting city dwelling confidently, saying in her heart, I, and none besides me. How was she for a desolation, a piece of lying down for the beast! all passing by her shall hiss and wave his hand.
