Dead Sea Scroll Isaiah Chapter 24

Dead Sea Scroll Isaiah Chapter 24

28. (Chapter 24:1) Behold YHWH will empty the earth and make it a waste and twist in reverse its face and scatter
29. its inhabitants. (2) And it shall be as it is with the people so with the priest and as to the servant so to the lord, as to the hand maid
30. so to the mistress and as the buyer so the seller and as the lender so the borrower and as the receiver of interest so to the one who pays
31. to him. (3) The land shall be completely emptied and altogether plundered, because YHWH has spoken
32. this word. (4) The earth mourns and fades away the world system droops and fades away

Column XIX Isaiah 24:4 to 25:3
1. (Continue 24:4) The highminded {&people&} of the earth wilt. (5) And the earth is polluted by those who inhabitant it. because
2. they have transgressed the Torah and have altered the statutes and have violated the eternal covenant. (6) Therefore His oath has devoured
3. [m..+the earth] and those dwelling in it as the offenders, on this account the inhabitants of the earth are scorched and there is a remnant of men
4. a very small. (7) The fresh pressed grape juice mourns and the vines wilt, all the joyful hearts sigh. (8) It ceases
5. even the mirth of tambourines, the noise of joy stops, the mirth of the harp ceases. (9) with a song
6. they shall not drink wine and strong drink will be bitter to those who drink it. (10) The disoriented city is shattered, barred are
7. all the houses from entering. (11) A cry for wine in the outskirts, all joy is darkened,
8. mirth is rolled away from the land. (12) Desolation only remains in the city and destruction strikes
9. the gate. (13) Because thus shall it be in the midst of the land in the middle of the people it shall be like the shaking of an olive tree
10. like gleaning when the vintage is finished. (14) They shall life up their voice, they shall sing about the majesty of
11. YHWH, [Q end verse here] They shall cry out from the sea. (15) Therefore glorify YHWH in the valleys and in the isles of the sea
12. the name of YHWH God of Israel. (PP)

13. (16) From the corners of the earth we have heard songs, Beauty shall be to the righteous, I am thin. I am very thin,
14. woe is me the traitors betray and the clothing of the betrayers is their treachery (17) Fear and the pit
15. and the snare are upon you O inhabitant of the earth. (18) and it shall be that the one fleeing from the sound of the fear shall fall
16. into the pit, and the one coming up out of the pit shall be captured by the snare because the windows
17. from the highest are opened and the foundations of the earth quake. (19) It is altogether broken up
18. even the earth. The earth is split wide open and is repeatedly shaken. (20) The staggering
19. of the earth shall be like the reeling of a drunkard and the shaking of a shed and her transgressions shall be a weight upon her
20. and she shall fall and shall not rise again. (PP)
