Isaias 24:12-17 Douay-Rheims Challoner Revision 1752 (DRC1752)

12. Desolation is left in the city, and calamity shall oppress the gates.

13. For it shall be thus in the midst of the earth, in the midst of the people, as if a few olives, that remain, should be shaken out of the olive tree: or grapes, when the vintage is ended.

14. These shall lift up their voice, and shall give praise: when the Lord shall be glorified, they shall make a joyful noise from the sea.

15. Therefore glorify ye the Lord in instruction: the name of the Lord God of Israel in the islands of the sea.

16. From the ends of the earth we have heard praises, the glory of the just one. And I said: My secret to myself, my secret to myself, woe is me: the prevaricators have prevaricated, and with the prevarication of transgressors they have prevaricated.

17. Fear, and the pit, and the snare are upon thee, O thou inhabitant of the earth.
